PADI kids’ programmes · Hurghada · Red Sea
Diving courses for children from age 8 — playful, in small groups, guided by PADI instructors who have worked with children for years. And parents can come into the water too.
Each level builds on the one before. You don’t have to decide in advance — together we look at what suits age, swimming confidence and length of holiday.
Your first adventure underwater 🐠 Out to the reef by boat, snorkel first, then 30 minutes of diving — just you and your very own instructor. One parent comes along for free.
Your first real diving certification 🏅 You learn the same as the grown-ups — just with more time and in a small group. And your certification is valid for life, all over the world.
Already got your diving certification? Then five adventure dives are waiting for you 🧭 Navigate with a compass, dive deeper and pick three adventures yourself.
Three questions, ten seconds — and we show you the right course.
While your child does their Bubblemaker or Junior Open Water Diver, you do your own course alongside. Same dive centre, matched times — and at dinner the whole family talks about the same day.
Drag, swipe or tap your way through — every card is a ready-made combination.
One child does the Bubblemaker, one parent the Open Water Diver.
Child and parent both earn their first certification — side by side.
The child gets a first taste, the already certified parent goes one level further.
A first certification for the child, the next level for the parent.
For families where both already hold a certification.
Two siblings take their first breath underwater together.
Two children earn their first real certification together.
Two children of different ages, each at their own level.
Both parents earn their diving certification, the child does the Bubblemaker.
Three certifications in one holiday — the whole family dives.
Every child is seen, every pace is allowed.
Certified instructors experienced in teaching children — in German, English, French or Arabic.
Practice happens where the child can stand — at a calm, shallow spot on the reef. Deeper only once they feel safe.
On the Bubblemaker, one parent comes along for free. Watch, take photos or snorkel yourself — you decide how close you want to be. Snorkel gear is included. With a diving certification you can even dive along — also included, only rented diving equipment costs €15 per day. Just let us know when booking.
All you need is swimwear, a towel and sunscreen. We take care of everything else.
In the morning we pick you up at your hotel and take you to the boat — and back again in the evening. On the Bubblemaker, one parent can come along for free.
On board you get your equipment in children’s sizes and learn the divers’ hand signals — even how to say “hello” to the fish.
First you snorkel at the surface, then you go underwater. On the Bubblemaker you dive one-to-one with your very own instructor for 30 minutes.
At the end you get your Bubblemaker certificate or your diving certification — to show off proudly at home.
Every child dives with an instructor at their side — from the first breath in shallow water to the last qualifying dive on the reef.
Seven things that make the difference — and most of them happen before the child gets into the water.
