The SSI Discover Scuba pathway

SSI's Try Scuba is a non-certification experience with a short digital orientation and instructor-led dive; it can be credited toward the SSI Open Water Diver course.

Where you'll dive in Dahab

SSI Try Scuba uses Dahab's calm, shallow shore bays at the Lighthouse and Mashraba, where easy entries and abundant reef fish, parrotfish and the chance of a turtle make an ideal first dive to around 6-12m.
