These are AquaMissions that introduce you to Wreck, U/W Navigation, Peak Buoyancy, U/W photography, environmental awareness, and more. Here's your chance to do some cool stuff in the pool, meet friends, and join in on the adventure of the underwater world.

The Fun Part

The best part of the Specialty AquaMissions is they reinforce safe diving skills while the kids have fun. PADI Seals get to sample a wide variety of dives, which allow them to explore their interests underwater in a safe and supervised setting. In addition, it provides parents with a structured program that lets their children develop crucial skills, learn about the aquatic environment, and have a lot of fun at the same time. This is also an excellent way to introduce kids to scuba diving prior to pursuing an Open Water Diver certification.

The Program:

Part One: Covers AquaMissions 1-5 and, upon completion, each child is awarded the PADI Seal Team Certification and becomes an official PADI Seal Team Member. AquaMissions 1-5 cover the basics of scuba diving, such as how to use scuba gear, breathing under water from a regulator, how to communicate under water, how to clear a mask, how to recover a regulator, techniques for equalisation, how to breath from your buddy’s alternate regulator, and how to float effortlessly like an astronaut.

Part Two: PADI Seals can continue the fun and exploration by undertaking 10 additional speciality AquaMissions and become a Master Seal Team Member. In Part Two, you will become a PADI Master Seal team member through completing 10 speciality AquaMissions. Each mission will introduce new challenges, skills, and underwater experiences including search and recovery diving, wreck diving, navigation specialist, night specialist, inner space specialist, environmental specialist, creature ID specialist, safety specialist, skin diver specialist, and snapshot specialist. AquaMissions 6-15 can be completed in any order. Once 10 speciality AquaMissions have been completed, you’ll become a Master Seal Team member, joining an elite group of young scuba divers.

For AquaMissions part one and part two, every child will have a log book and an activity book to complete. There is also a Seal Team DVD to help reinforce safe diving skills.

Each AquaMission usually takes 2 hours including the dive briefing and pool time.
