ABOUT SSI
SCUBA SCHOOLS INTERNATIONAL GREW OUT OF THE PASSION OF A FEW AVID DIVERS WHO WERE INTENT ON MAKING IT POSSIBLE FOR ANYONE TO LEARN HOW TO SCUBA DIVE.

For more than 45 years, SSI has provided training, scuba diving certifications, and educational resources for divers, dive instructors, dive centers and resorts around the world. Started in 1970, SSI has expanded to include more than 30 Service Centers, is represented in more than 110 countries with over 2,800 International locations, and has materials printed in more than 30 languages. SSI is the name to trust in the diving world, and we attribute that success to their uncompromising standards and focused methodology.


SSI IS RECOGNIZED ANYWHERE YOU WANT TO DIVE.


Since 2010, Scuba Schools International is one of the few training agencies who qualified for a Global ISO Certification, that meet the International Standards. Every SSI certification or e-card is recognised and respected internationally.

TRY SCUBA

The SSI Try Scuba program is your introduction to the underwater world. This entry-level program gives you the opportunity to experience the underwater world, in a confined water setting. The course begins with a 30-minute theory session, explaining the basic principles of diving and briefing the students on the safety procedures. Each student is assigned with a full scuba unit and all the necessary equipment to make the first dive easy and fun. Try scuba dives are performed only in small private groups, which is part of our core philosophy.
