These prices are for schoolgroups of 20 or over. Discounts apply for larger groups. Smaller groups may have to pay more. Please check what applies for your group, with Seafriends. We charge parents for the use of snorkel gear but teachers are free. All snorkel equipment is provided: warm full suits, mask and snorkel, fins, masks for short-sighted eyes and if required, also weight belts. In the colder months a hood is also provided. No need for parents to invest. Parents pay for the gear only, at children's prices. Bigger groups enjoy the efficiency of re-using the snorkelgear, resulting in a reduced price. We can handle up to 140 pupils per day (3 groups of 46). The more time you have, the more time we can spend per activity, and the more enjoyment can be had, and the more can be learnt. You learn how the sea differs from the land; how living conditions affect what lives where. You meet many of our common sea creatures and some rare ones. You descend into the miniature world of the rocky shore, appreciating how each creature has adapted to its particular niche. You learn to use mask and snorkel and fins and receive many tips for snorkeldiving. You enter the sea in a warm, protective wetsuit and explore the underwater scene with its many tame fishes but also its many hidden creatures. Our snorkel course takes children without prior experience into the water. They don't even need to be able to swim.
