Basic Diver (BD)

Basic Diver (BD)

In the SSI Basic Diver program, you will learn the skills and knowledge you need to try diving up to 12 meters deep with an SSI Professional. It is a great way to explore the underwater world more fully as you try diving. The entire Basic Diver program can be credited towards the Scuba Diver or Open Water Dive programs within 6 months, so you can take the next step in your dive adventure.

  • Theory to understand basic principles of scuba diving – just the first three of five sections of the Open Water Diver course.
