Kids Sea Camp kids say the darnest things
Fun things kids say about learning to scuba dive at Kids Sea Camp
Diving is fun, exciting, and taste bad! It is cool to breathe underwater. (Sarah)
I love looking at all the fish, looking at me (Logan)
Diving is hard but easy. It was hard because I had a little trouble getting my fins on, but it was easy to see and breath. (sam)
I like the zero gravity and feel like a superhero. (Jack)
I loved the camera I got from Margo Peyton and SeaLife. My favorite picture was the one that I took of my mom and dad. I did not take one of my brother because he was mad that I had the camera. (Cash)
I’m scared of jellyfish, they sting, but Sea urchins only hurt if you step on them. (Sophie)
Kids Sea Camp was my parents, aunt, and uncles’ Christmas present to me. They all enjoyed my gift, too. (Lisa)
I love diving at the kids’ Sea Camp with my friends! I have a new friend, Sophie! My favorite thing about Sophie is she lives in Grand Cayman, and I’m looking forward to visiting her a lot. (Holly)
I’m looking forward to the turtles we are going to see today! The Cayman Islands are really cool because we play with pirates, and I think my dad is one of them. – Noah, age 9, PADI seal team
Scuba diving feels good because I’m upside down. I see more colors and more creatures than on land. There are so many fish in the ocean. My favorite animal is the octopus because I would like to have 8 arms. When I went diving, I saw a really cool puffer fish. It has really big eyes with different colors.
The only time I got exercise was diving against the current. My favorite thing was learning how to scuba dive! I learned about a lot about the underwater world. I got a SeaLife camera and took a picture of a yellow and blackfish. I am scared of great white sharks. I’m looking forward to going on the boat in the ocean. I’m happy I came to Kids Sea Camp with my mom, dad, Jill, Jason, Debbie, and Scott for vacation. My favorite activity is diving. My favorite thing about the hotel in Grand Cayman is hanging out with my friends. I say thank you, mom and dad, I saw the most amazing stuff in the coral reefs of Grand Cayman with Kids Sea Camp! — Weston Bodle, age 9, PADI seal team
When you are a PADI seal you get to go on Aqua Missions and have a treasure hunt. This week I learned a lot of cool things about the ocean. I love diving and I hope I can dive more because it is fun to see fish and plants underwater. I think that every family should try scuba diving together. I think my grandma can do it too because you don’t have to walk. The SeaLife cameras are the best thing because it shoots very good pictures and videos on land and in water. Im not afraid underwater because just like with my big brother if you don’t bother anything, it wond bother you. (Joshua)
My parents, and grandparents brought me to Kids Sea Camp because they thought it would be a good experience for me to learn to dive with them. My grandpa taught us how to dive in the ocean as a PADI Seal. I’ve met a new friend named Jacob, and he lives in Wisconsin, and we will be dive buddies. My favorite part about this week was meeting Jacob. He does not have a grandpa so Im sharing mine with him.I am looking forward to taking pictures of Jacob in the ocean so I can share them with him. I’d like to thank my parents for bringing me To Kids Sea Camp. The best thing to tell my friends at home is diving is like being an astronaut (Grant) — age 9, PADI seal team
- I love diving it tastes like salt water, the equipment is heavy, the fish are adorable and the salt water burns….a lot! It’s weird breathing underwater because, technically, that’s not supposed to be possible; also, I now know how to get water out of my mask by breathing out my nose.
- At Kids Sea Camp in Grand Cayman, so far, I have met a British person, a Cayman person, a Canadian person, and a French person. I also saw water, sand and at Conch Fritters.
- Something hard that I am having trouble with is buoyancy, I accidentally kicked Sebastian in the face…OOPS! Also getting used to breathing with the regulator because I like to blow bubbles with it.
- The best part was pretending I was a mermaid with Zoe and seeing all the cute fish! I like listening to all the British people talk, I like to try to talk that way too. I think it’s cool.
- I got my SeaLife camera and it is really cool. I want to take a picture of Zoe because she’s gorgeous.
- September and Joe taught me how to take my mask off because when you need to do that, you will know how.
- My dad loves diving.
- I enjoy Zoe and Sebastian, he is British and I like the way he says turtle, and Zoe is just Awesome!

Kids Sea Camp is…….cool fun, and the best part is meeting other kids who scuba dive
The Cayman Islands are my favorite because there are Pirates, coconuts, shipwrecks, big iguanas and. My grandma is so happy I came on this trip with her. She is a diver, too, and we travel together.
Scuba diving is……. Fun and exciting. I love my grandmother!
I would tell my friends back home that they should start diving.
Austin Guarino, age 13, Advanced Open Water
Being underwater feels like you can fly. It sounds like nothing but bubbles. I feel like my regulator is to small for my mouth sometimes because I’m trying to talk underwater. My mask always fogs up, so I need to put more spit in it. Something I learned this week was how to scuba dive with Kids Sea Camp.— Quint Wegner, age 10, JOW
Snorkeling:
-It feels weird but cool for me to scuba dive underwater
-It sounds like me breathing underwater and listening to my bubbles is fun
-I never was really a fan of snorkeling, I feel like shark bait on the surface
-I see many cool things in the ocean, but my favorite thing to see is my family. (Shelby)
“-I’ve learned that scuba diving makes dads happy because there is no talking underwater.” (Jack)
-My mom brought me to Grand Cayman Kids sea Camp to do some fun things with my family. She brought my sister with us to, she can scuba dive with my mom. I didn’t really want to come here in the first place but I’m glad I did because I made lots of new friends. I’m very happy I came! My favorite part is all my new friends.
What I’m looking forward to:
-I’m looking forward to going snorkeling in the ocean and go to stingray city and dive with my mom and dad together as a family.
– A challenge to overcome is trying to go snorkeling more because I don’t really like snorkeling all that much.
My favorite memory so far:
-The scavenger hunt was my favorite thing so far because it was really fun to try and find the clues and the treasure.
Kids Sea Camp is:
-Fun, fantastic, great, awesome, terrific and fabulous, thank you for inventing a place for me.
Grand Cayman is:
-Hot, wonderful, and exciting and full of turtles and pirates
What I would tell my friend:
-My trip was great
– I had a great time
-You should go to Kids Sea Camp some time with me.

I am in the turtle program and it feels like I’m a turtle, I like to Explore!! I’m looking forward to using the SASY scuba unit with my mom and dad and diving as a family. My friend that I met Is Skylar! Kids Sea Camp is fun! Scuba diving with my mom and dad is my Favorite and fun! — Madi Banks, age 7, sassy
Scuba diving is weird but fun, I see lots of fish and other kids. I learned that I need to come up slow on assent. I hear water rushing around my ears when I go into the ocean. I taste a little salt water in the ocean. I’m excited to try the scooters. My mommy and daddy brought me to kids sea camp because they want my brother, sister and I to learn how to dive together as a family. It was challenging to get in the water but I feel better now and want to come again next time. I like diving with my mom and dad.
