Continue your SCUBA discovery with the deep diving specialty program
If you dream of exploring the big blue this specialty is for you. The SSI Deep Diving Specialty will give you the ability to safely and comfortably plan and conduct dives beyond 18 meters, and is a prerequisite for some advanced training.
Many exciting dive sites are located in deeper water. Without proper training, this kind of diving puts you at risk. Sometimes it’s a wreck that attracts you below 18 metres/60 feet, and on wall dives it may be a giant fan or sponge. Whatever it is, to scuba dive with confidence at depths down to 40 metres/130 feet, you should take the SSI Deep Diving Specialty.
