“Raising Ocean Explorers: Why the Next Generation of Divers Starts with Us”
By Reko Ponton, The Dive Guide

Some of my most unforgettable dives haven’t been in the deepest reefs or with the rarest sea life—but with kids taking their very first breath underwater. There’s something magical about watching a young diver light up as they float beside a sea turtle or explore a coral garden. It’s a powerful reminder that the future of ocean conservation begins with inspiring the next generation.

At The Dive Guide, we’re committed to creating safe, educational, and exciting dive experiences for families—especially young adventurers. With youth certification programs, family dive trips, and a focus on safety and readiness, we help kids and parents explore the underwater world together—one breath at a time.
