Looking for the coolest birthday gift ever? Imagine diving into a magical underwater world, to observe some of the most unique and beautiful marine life! At Blue Planet Aquarium, your young explorer can step into the fins of a scuba diver and experience the ocean like never before.
What’s the Adventure?
With special kid-sized scuba gear, junior divers will head (fully supervised, of course!) into the reef section of our Reef Tank. This is their chance to come face-to-fin with:
- Zebra Bullhead Sharks
- Arabian & Brownbanded Bamboo Sharks
- Moray Eels
- Wobbegong Sharks
- Southern Stingray
- Filefish
- Pufferfish
- And a rainbow of tropical fish!
What’s Included?
- Expert guidance and full instructions
- A complete children’s scuba kit
- Free entry for one adult spectator
Safety First
- Please note that all divers are required to complete a dive medical prior to diving. If your responses indicate the need for a physician’s medical approval, it is the guest’s responsibility to obtain and provide this documentation before the dive. Should medical approval not be granted, a £25 administration fee will apply to any refunded dives.

Ages: 8–15
-
Minimum height: 125cm (4ft 2in)
-
Junior divers splash down to a safe depth of 2 metres.
-
One parent can watch the dive either from above the tank (in quarantine) or through the magical Aqua Tunnel – all while staying dry on land!
- It is not recommended to fly or travel to altitude 24 hours before or after diving to prevent decompression sickness (DCS), also known as ‘the bends’.
We often run dives on Saturdays and Sundays at 8:30am, although this remains subject to change and availability.
