Basic Diver

Your First Real Step Into the Underwater World

You are about to embark on one of the greatest adventures of your life.

Becoming a scuba diver isn’t just learning a new skill — it’s unlocking an entirely new way to experience the planet. The ocean is Earth’s last true frontier, and as a diver, you gain access to a world few ever truly explore.

While only astronauts experience weightlessness in space, divers experience true weightlessness on every dive. You’ll glide effortlessly through water, encounter incredible marine life, and discover reefs, wrecks, and underwater landscapes hidden beneath the surface.

The Basic Diver Program is the perfect bridge between a Try Scuba experience and full Open Water certification. It gives you real open water experience, without the time commitment of a full certification course.

Your Path to Becoming a Basic Diver

✔ Complete the Digital Learning modules via the SSI MySSI App (self-paced, anytime, anywhere)
