Ocean's Classroom
![]() |
Ocean's Classroom is a discovery-based program for children which combines snorkeling with hands-on learning about the ocean and its inhabitants. Your child will explore the wonders of the Caribbean Sea while learning how to safely snorkel! Understanding the complexity of the ocean will help your child learn the importance of protecting the underwater world. Learning will take place in the classroom and in the ocean. We are also able to offer SASY (Supplied Air Snorkeling for Youth) units to the kids. SASY is a delightful way to introduce your children to the wonders of the underwater world. Designed for kids six years and up under adult supervision, SASY allows them to enjoy uninterrupted breathing while floating on the surface. The life-jacket style floatation device holds a small compressed air tank, regulator, pressure gauge, and is used without weights. SASY prepares the kids for further SCUBA training and certification. At age eight they may participate in the Bubblemaker program, and at 10 years they can be ready for Junior Open Water limited certification. SASY is a PADI-sanctioned activity. |
