Students registered in the Advanced course will enhance their snorkeling and free diving skills and if qualified, can undergo scuba training. • Students registered for the Intermediate and Advanced courses will be required to complete a Swimming Assessment to obtain clearance from the swimming instructor to continue with the course. This assessment will be administered on the student's first day of attendance. • Each course has different maximum occupancy: Beginner - 30, Intermediate - 20, and Advanced - 10. • Courses will operate for 6-weeks (6 Saturdays). We highly encourage participants to attend each session as they are all equally important and cover information that builds on previous lessons.
