Frequently asked questions

At what age can my child start swimming lessons?

Many swim schools offer classes from early childhood. Ask the school which age groups they teach and how classes are grouped.

Do I need to swim before learning to scuba dive?

Yes. SSI entry-level programmes include a water fitness evaluation, so basic swimming ability and comfort in the water are needed before Open Water Diver training.

Do swim schools teach adults?

Many do. Check each school's listing and ask about adult beginner or stroke-improvement classes.
