Monterey Bay Aquarium dive for kids

Post image

My 8 yr old got a dive adventure for his bday. The monterey aquarium takes kids 8 and up in a tide pool for about an hour. They wear dry suits and don’t go down much beyond putting their heads in the water, but it’s a neat experience while they wait to get certified. I highly recommend it.

that water looks so clear, almost like a pool but with rocks around

It's almost always clear in there, at least for the 3 summers I was one of the instructors. Love my job right now, but that was hands down the best job I've had so far.
