Course overview

The SSI Try Scuba experience lets you test the water in Bali's friendliest first-dive setting — the shallow, current-free shallows of Tulamben Bay. With an instructor at your side you breathe underwater and glide over coral teeming with reef fish steps from the famous Liberty wreck. It is a low-pressure introduction that often turns first-timers into certified divers.

The SSI Discover Scuba pathway

SSI Try Scuba uses a free digital intro and a performance-based approach; it is an experience rather than a certification, and the skills carry over directly into the SSI Open Water Diver programme.

Where you'll dive in Bali

SSI Try Scuba takes place in Tulamben Bay's calm, shallow water near the Liberty wreck, an easy black-sand entry where beginners meet clownfish and butterflyfish without any current to contend with.
