Seal Team Program

  

 

When you get right down to it - the PADI Seal Team program is just plain cool! Designed for young divers (kids eight years and older), this exciting new program is built around action-packed AquaMissions!

   
The Program
 
What is an AquaMission? It's an underwater pool adventure where kids learn scuba activities. Take AquaMission: Inner Space Specialist for example. Here, kids learn how to float underwater like an Astronaut. For AquaMission: Snapshot Specialist, this is where PADI Seal Team members take pictures of each other scuba diving.
   
Supported by a video, manual and logbook, the PADI Seal Team program is broken into two parts. Part one, AquaMissions 1 - 5, teaches kids the basics of diving - things like buoyancy control, mask clearing, regulator recovery, etc. After building a solid foundation of scuba skills, kids move on to part two.
