SSI Scuba Diver Course – Phuket

What's involved in the SSI Scuba Diver course?

The course takes two days and is split into three sections:

• Theory of diving: there will be around half a day in the classroom covering the basic principles that you need to understand before you can be considered a certified SSI Scuba Diver. You can choose to do the theory online if you like.  That way you can work at your own pace, at home, before you arrive in Phuket. That will save around half a day of the course, so it means more time in the water!

You can create a profile now if you like, and have a look at the online materials for Scuba Diver, completely Free of Charge! Click the button below to get started.

• Skills sessions in the pool: you will learn the basic skills involved in scuba diving. The first time we introduce the skills, you will learn them in the safe, confined environment of the swimming pool.
• Open Water Dives: once you're familiar with the basic skills, we will introduce you to the Open Water environment, where you will practice the skills, during your Open Water dives, until you're completely comfortable with them. This is the SSI system of Comfort Through Repetition, giving you the time you need to practice each skill until it is second nature to you. The required minimum is two dives, and we offer an additional fun dive for free, giving you three dives in total.
