SSI Open Water & SSI Advanced Adventurer

From Beginner to Explorer: The SSI Open Water & SSI Advanced Adventurer Combo in Goa!

Do you dream of exploring the incredible world beneath the waves? Want to become a certified scuba diver? How about gaining experience in different types of diving right after you learn the basics? FlyingFish Scuba School in sunny Goa offers the perfect solution: the comprehensive SSI Open Water & SSI Advanced Adventurer combo package! This program takes you on an exciting journey. You start as a complete beginner. You finish as a certified diver with supervised experience in five different specialty areas. It's an amazing way to build a solid foundation and immediately expand your diving horizons.

Your adventure begins with the globally respected SSI Open Water Diver course. This is the essential first step in your journey. You start with SSI’s engaging digital learning program. Access it online or via the MySSI app. Learn the crucial theory behind safe diving. Understand dive physics, physiology, equipment, and planning. You complete this at your convenience.

Next, you join our expert SSI instructors here in Goa for practical training. You head to the pool or confined water first. This calm environment is perfect for learning core skills. Take your first breaths underwater. Master clearing your mask. Practice retrieving your regulator. Learn essential buoyancy control techniques. Your instructor ensures you are comfortable and proficient.

Then, the real adventure begins with four open water dives in the beautiful Arabian Sea. Apply the skills you learned in a real-world setting. Follow your instructor as you explore Goa's underwater sites. Practice navigation and buddy procedures. Gain confidence with each dive. After successfully completing all requirements, you earn your SSI Open Water Diver certification. This certifies you to dive with a buddy up to 18 meters (60 feet) deep worldwide.

Immediately following your Open Water certification, your journey continues! The Advanced Adventurer program lets you sample five different SSI specialty areas. You complete one open water training dive from five specialties of your choice (based on interest, age, and local conditions). This is the perfect way to discover what excites you most about diving. You gain valuable experience without committing to a full specialty course right away.

Adventures you might try include:

Deep Diving: Planning and procedures for safely diving deeper than 18 meters (minimum age 15)

Perfect Buoyancy: Master effortless hovering and efficient movement underwater

Underwater Navigation: Improve compass skills and ability to navigate natural underwater features

Night & Limited Visibility: Witness nocturnal marine life

Wreck Diving (non-penetration): Safely explore submerged wrecks and learn about their history

Boat Diving: Techniques for diving comfortably and safely from boats

Fish Identification: Recognize common fish families in Goan waters

Detailed briefings are provided before each adventure dive. Completing five diverse dives earns you the SSI Advanced Adventurer certification. Note: This certification does not automatically grant SSI's Advanced Open Water Diver recognition (which requires four full specialty certifications and 24 logged dives). Each adventure dive counts as the first dive towards the corresponding full SSI specialty certification.

The Combined Journey Advantage:

Choosing the package offers significant benefits. You transition smoothly from learning basic skills to applying them in new and exciting scenarios. Immediate reinforcement helps solidify your learning and builds confidence rapidly. You discover different facets of diving early on. This helps you decide where you might want to specialize later.
