Honeymoon SSI open water diver

Thank you so much to Aris and all the team at Adang sea divers. We couldn’t have wished or dreamed of a better group of people to take us on the trip of a lifetime. I have never been not scared to do anything in my life. Aris guided us through the course and mentally and physically held my hand. Thank you for showing me the under water world! For giving me the confidence to succeed and the belief in myself. You believed in me when i didnt. Bucket list item ticked off and a world of wonders to explore. We LOVE YOU!!!!!!!

      About the Course

      We specialise in flexible schedules, thorough instruction and small classes. Normally we have 2 students per instructor and guarantee no more than 4 students per class. This means you get more attention from us and we get to know you a little better!

      KNOWLEDGE:

      The course begins with knowledge development through downloading the MySSI app and completing the theory chapters. Then when you arrive to Ko Lipe you will watch a short video and do equipment set ups with your SSI Instructor.

      NEW SKILLS:

      Practice 20 new scuba skills in a confined water area. Usually of one of the many beautiful beaches on Koh Lipe! Learn new snorkelling skills, skin diving and scuba skills over 2 sessions. This allows you to practice and get comfortable with everything you have learnt. A 200 metre swim and 10 minute survival float are required for certification.

      THE FUN STUFF:

      Practice your new skills over 4 Open Water Dives and explore our stunning coral reefs! Jump on our speedboat to visit our local dive sites in the Tarutao National Marine Park to complete your training dives. You will practice buoyancy and emergency skills, dive planning and navigation techniques.

      Two dives are made on the first day to a maximum depth of 12 metres and two the following day to a maximum depth of 18 metres. Being on a speedboat you will come back to the dive shop in between dives for a break.

      If you don’t have enough time for this course or think you are not ready consider completing the SSI Try SCUBA Diving or SSI SCUBA Diver Course first.
