About the Diving skill

The Diving skill comes with The Sims 4 Adventure Awaits Expansion Pack and is a five level skill. 
  • Elder, Adult, Young Adult, Teen, and Child Sims can all build this skill.
  • While practicing Diving, your Sim will also build Fitness skill. Child Sims will also build their Motor skill. 
  • Diving can affect your Sim’s moodlets, with leveling up earning them a Focused Moodlet, a good dive earning them a Confident Moodlet, and an Embarrassed Moodlet if they fail a dive. 

How to build the Diving skill

There are multiple ways for your Sim to build the Diving skill. Some interactions are only unlocked when your Sim reaches a certain level.

Use the diving board

The most straightforward way for your Sim to build this skill is to start diving! You’ll find both short and tall diving boards in Build ModeSims can select from different types of jumps or just select Practice Diving. As they increase their skill level, more jump types will become available.If you select the Practice Diving option, your Sim will continuously practice different dives without you needing to queue up multiple interactions. 

Diving skill levels

As your Sim builds the Diving skill, they’ll unlock new interactions along the way.
