Learn to Swim in Diani Beach
Ocean Tribe is excited to announce that we are now an SSI Swim School. This means that everyone, from babies to adults, can learn to swim in a safe and supportive environment. With the trusted Swim Schools International program, our lessons follow a proven method that builds confidence, comfort, and skill in the water.
Why Choose SSI to Learn to Swim
The SSI system is used by swim schools around the world. It focuses on steady progress and safety at every step. Our instructors guide swimmers with patience, ensuring each class feels rewarding. At Ocean Tribe, we believe that learning should always be fun. By combining expert instruction with play and encouragement, every swimmer learns to love the water.
Baby and Toddler Swim Classes
Even the youngest members of the family can begin. Babies from just two months old can join our parent-and-baby sessions. These classes are gentle, playful, and designed to make children feel comfortable in the water from their first splash. Parents take part, which makes each lesson a bonding experience as well as a first step in water safety.
Kids Learn to Swim with Confidence
As children grow, our classes develop their abilities step by step. They move from floating and gliding to full strokes and breathing techniques. Just as important, they learn vital safety skills. This approach means kids not only swim better but also feel confident in and around the water.
Adults Can Learn to Swim Too
It is never too late to start. Many adults missed the chance to learn to swim as children, but our welcoming lessons make it possible to begin at any age. Some join to overcome fear of water, others for fitness, and many to enjoy the ocean here in Diani. Whatever the reason, we offer the right environment to achieve your goals.

Do parents join in the baby swim classes?
Yes. Parents take part in the water with their baby. This creates a safe and supportive learning environment.
How long is each swimming lesson?
Lessons usually last between 30 and 45 minutes. This keeps classes engaging and fun without tiring swimmers.
