Diving Course
OFFERS FOR BEGINNERS
Diving fun can begin from the age of eight. The SSI Scuba Ranger and Explorers programmes are specially designed for children. If you just want to try out whether diving is for you, you can book a taster course in the Try Scuba Diver programme.
The “Open Water Diver” course offered by SSI leads to a globally recognised certification, a diving licence. The VDST bronze diver exam (CMAS*) can also be taken.
