Dive Training in the Pool

The pool features three distinct sections, with varying depths ranging from 1 meter to 2.2 meters, catering to the needs of younger children and providing a safe and controlled environment for learning and exploration.
Safe and Fun Learning Environment
Under the watchful eye of their instructor, the children engage in a series of fun-filled activities and practice essential diving skills. From playful games to mastering buoyancy control, every moment in the pool is an opportunity for learning and adventure. Throughout the session, safety remains the top priority, ensuring that the children not only have a memorable experience but also a safe one.
Certification and Achievement
As the pool session draws to a close, each child receives a Bubblemaker certificate, a testament to their newfound skills and achievements. This certificate serves as a proud reminder of their first foray into the underwater world and can be displayed proudly in their room at home, inspiring future adventures and discoveries.
