How does SSI Scuba Diver run, day by day?

SSI Scuba Diver usually takes usually 2–3 days.

  1. Day 1

    Theory and confined water

    Finish your learning materials with the instructor, then build core skills in shallow water.

    • Mask clearing and regulator recovery
    • Neutral buoyancy basics
    • Buddy checks before every dive
  2. Day 2

    Two open-water dives

    From the boat, two dives on a sheltered reef where you repeat your skills for real.
