The SSI Snorkel Diver program is your first step towards discovering a passion for the underwater world.

With a 90-minute session in confined water and under the guidance of an instructor, it is the best way to learn how to snorkel and develop your confidence in the water, so you can go snorkeling and explore the mesmerizing landscapes and wildlife of the aquatic world.

You do not need to be a proficient swimmer to participate in the Snorkel Diver program, and there is no minimum age to join. You just need to be comfortable in the water, able to maintain your buoyancy, and ready to begin the adventure of a lifetime and receive the SSI Snorkel Diver recognition card! 

For more information or to book on visit our snorkel diver page. 

Not dived for a while?

Need to practice your skills before your open water training dives?

It is easy for dive skills to get rusty and to lose confidence when you have not dived for a while. With our SSI Scuba Skills Update, we will get you back in the water and diving with ease in no time.

Our scuba refresher course allows you to review and practice scuba skills you learned in your Open Water Diver program, under the guidance of an SSI Professional in our swimming pool session on a Tuesday evening. 

If you are a non-certified Open Water Diver student, a Scuba Skills Update is ideal for practicing your dive skills before your open water training dives. 

Once completed we will register your experience with SSI. To book on or for more information click here.

The opportunities to expand your diving adventures have just got bigger!

The SSI Decompression Diving Specialty will teach you how to dive beyond the no-decompression limits. You will learn to plan and conduct dives to a maximum depth of 40 meters with limited decompression using your recreational total diving system and a single decompression cylinder. You will learn and practice how to effectively use your dive computer features, including switching gases, gas integration, time-to-reserve, and time-to-surface. Using these computer functions will become second nature, enabling you to safely conduct dives with limited decompression without hours of dive planning.

For more information visit our Decompression Diver Page.
