Advanced Dive Training

Boat Diving Specialty
120 (€)
"BOAT DIVING is not just diving from a boat - it is your guarantee for a successful and relaxing first diving holiday!"

Most of the diving you will do while on vacation will take place from a dive boat.
 

In your BOAT DIVING SPECIALTY COURSE you will learn the right boat diving techniques, how to choose the right travel agency and diving operator when planning your vacation, what to consider when traveling with your Total Diving System.

Taking a BOAT DIVING program prior to your vacation guarantees you will be ready.

Deep diving
150 (€)
'depth attracts a lot of divers, as deep diving provides this certain kick'
Dive in places only few have ventured before. Get the experience and dive below 30 meters to see the astonishing sea life , amazing reefs and mezmerising wrecks. 
To do these dives safely, you need the right skills and knowledge and that is exactly what DEEP DIVING course provides you.         Combine other specialties while taking the deep diving course. Wreck Diving or Underwater Photography are great add-ons. The possibilities are limitless!


Equipment Technique
100 (€)
"Your Total Diving System is like a buddy underwater who you need to be able to rely on at any time!"
 
Diving is more fun and more comfortable in your own equipment.
 
 
The EQUIPMENT TECHNIQUES program teaches you how to choose the right equipment for your needs.
 
You will learn how to fit, adjust , maintain and make small repairs right on the spot.

Underwater Navigation
120 (€)
Have you ever asked yourself, "How does my instructor manage to find the way back to the exit point or to the boat?"
 
If so, the NAVIGATION Program is what you need to learn this skill for yourself.
 
 
The NAVIGATION Program will teach you to navigate with a compass and how to apply natural navigation skills.
 
You will also learn to estimate distances, navigate different search patterns, find your way to different marking points, and be able to get back to the exit point at any time.

Nitrox
150 (€)
Have you ever dreamed of having longer no-decompression limits to take pictures or explore a wreck? Did you ever want to be safer while diving concerning the potential risk of decompression sickness?
 
Nitrox is the key. Due to the reduced fraction of nitrogen in your breathing gas, your body will have less work and the desaturation times will be reduced.
 
 
In your ENRICHED AIR NITROX program you will learn all the necessary rules for planning dives with Nitrox and using Nitrox in a safe way. An important key point in the entire program is analyzing your own tank prior to any Nitrox dive.
 
"Nitrox for free" is a slogan in a lot of resorts. This means that you do not have to pay a surcharge for Nitrox, but all diving operators will want to see a valid Nitrox certificate before you can dive.
 
ENRICHED AIR NITROX contains optional dives and therefore it is a perfect "Winter Specialty" before your diving holiday starts. This will allow you to go diving immediately and enjoy the advantages of diving with Nitrox.
 

Perfect Buoyancy
120 (€)
"Every diver wants to be a "good diver" - Perfect buoyancy control is the first step in this direction."
 
Improving your buoyancy control skills is highly recommended. Every diver who wants to improve diving skills and at the same time wants to perform active environmental protection should take a PERFECT BUOYANCY course.
 
 
Nearly every diver who wants to dive on great spots on holiday is requested to do a Check-Dive and buoyancy control is one of the essential skills that has to be performed.
 
This isn't done to stress you out at the start of your vacation. It is done to protect the reefs you will be diving around.
 
The destruction and harm caused by divers with weak buoyancy skills is having an impact on reefs worldwide. Additionally, perfect buoyancy control is a prerequisite for nearly all Specialty Courses.

Science Of Diving
180 (€)
The SCIENCE OF DIVING program treats all areas of dive theory to a detailed and comprehensive manner: physics, physiology, decompression theory, marine life and diving equipment.
 
Whether you simply want more knowledge or plan to become a Dive Professional, Science of Diving is just what you need!
 
The SCIENCE OF DIVING program is a perfect "winter Specialty", since no dives are required. If you want to know more about the dive theory, you can just buy the manual, to sign up for the course.

Digital Underwater Photography
120 (€)
"By the time diving was difficult, photography was also difficult."

Today these facts have changed completely. Now diving and photography with a digital camera system have become very easy.

Many of you may already have a digital camera system and a proper underwater housing. As such, it's likely you are asking yourself how to take better pictures. Now a structured program is available to answer your digital underwater photography questions which means more fun and satisfaction in diving.

The DIGITAL UNDERWATER PHOTOGRAPHY Program can be learned in the pool/confined water or directly in the open water. This makes this a perfect "winter specialty" which can be done just before your diving holiday starts.


Night & Limited Visibility
130 (€)
"Diving at night means excitement, adventure and fascination all at the same time!"
 
The underwater world is a new and mystical world for us.
 
 
While diving at night you can discover a different side of this world and you can experience it from a completely different view.
 
It is an unbelievable feeling to discover the mysteries held underwater when the sun goes down.
 
With the right equipment and a powerful torch there is a lot to discover. Night diving is a whole new way to experience the underwater world.

Search & Recovery
120 (€)
"Finding treasure is something every diver thinks of more than once in his/her diving career."

Whether it's the gold of a sunken ship, a lost ring or simply your buddy's dive light that was accidentally lost, there are times in which the appropriate training to search for lost objects underwater would be beneficial.

SSI offers a structured program for SEARCH AND RECOVERY where you will learn to perform different search patterns with the help of ropes and compasses, and to plan search and recovery operations in a team.

You will also learn the correct handling of one or more lifting bags in order to bring heavy objects securely to the surface.

If you want to learn more about SEARCH AND RECOVERY, you can buy the manual or the DVD even if you don't want to sign up for the course..

Wreck diving
230 (€)
"Diving on wrecks means diving in the past - and it is always related with a certain thrill..."
 
It is an unbelievable experience to see a big ship from a bird's perspective and to glide towards the captain's bridge. But there are also tragedies related to wrecks.
 
 
Diving on wrecks is exciting and there are some potential risks too, but with the right training WRECK DIVING will become a great adventure.
