    Long-term diving planning: Say, you want to go to the Galapagos, but you only have ten dives. KSC and FDA will work to help you fulfill that dream when you and your kids are ready. We will ensure you understand exactly what is needed for you to be able to safely dive into your dream destination. We know It’s not safe to put inexperienced divers in an advanced diving destination like the Galapagos. This is “vacation mapping” and only comes from our dive travel experts speaking directly to our clients and asking the right type of questions to ensure a great adventure.  

    You can’t book online without giving us a call the first time: Because of our service is commitment to safe and fun dive adventures for you and your kids or grandkids, you can’t book with us the first time unless you talk to us.

    The owners of Family Dive Adventures and Kids Sea Camp are also dive parents: Tom, Margo, Rob, and Jen are PADI-trained experienced divers. Margo started Kids Sea Camp when Rob was 6 and Jen was 4. The kids are now 30 and 28, and they have so many experiences to share. Having their own kids grow up within Kids Sea Camp, Margo and Tom have a wonderful understanding of your family needs.

    They know the needs of kids age 4 -7 in the SASY programs or kids Age 8 & 9 in the PADI Seal Team program. Kids Sea Camp program allows your kids to learn to dive in confined water conditions with an instructor in a 1:2 ratio.  Then PADI Jr. Open Water teaches kids to dive at age 10 they become certified jr. divers with a 40-foot max depth and can dive with their parents or a dive pro. 

    At the age of 12, they can become Jr. Advanced Open Water certified and that means learning more about buoyancy, navigation, fish ID, night diver, deep diver, and even digital photography,  This PADI rating gives kids ages 12 – 14 a depth of 70 feet.  Once a child turns 15, they are then diving adult profiles.
