At Salty Swim School, we specialize in introducing kids to the wonders of swimming in the ocean.

Signing up for Swim Lessons with Salty Swim School is one of the best ways to learn how to swim in Kona.
Baby & Me Swim Lessons
Baby & Me is designed for children under 3 years old who need a parent or guardian to participate. The ocean is scary at first. Because of that, our lessons are centered on building trust between parent and child while laying the foundation for independence. We aim to:
- Teach parents strategies to guide children toward independent water safety.
- Develop swim skills, including back float, front float, rolling over, and move in the water.
- Help parents transition their children into confident, independent swimmers.
