The SSI Scuba Diver pathway

SSI Scuba Diver is a scaled-down version of Open Water Diver delivered through MySSI, certifying you to 12 metres under professional supervision. It credits directly toward the full SSI Open Water Diver rating.

Where you'll dive in Tarkarli Malvan

Training uses the sheltered, shallow bay off Tarkarli and Malvan, beside the historic Sindhudurg Fort, where calm, shallow, clear warm 26-29C water in the post-monsoon October-to-May season, when the Konkan coast is calm and clear gives new divers a forgiving introduction; the limited depth suits the sheltered bay perfectly.
