Frequently asked questions

How is this different from Open Water?

Scuba Diver is a 12m supervised cert (you must dive with a Pro). Open Water is 18m and lets you dive independently with any buddy. Scuba Diver is faster + cheaper if your time is limited.

Can I upgrade to full Open Water later?

Yes, 2 additional ocean dives + the 18m skills sign-off. Costs about ₹6,000 extra when you upgrade. Most students who Scuba Diver first end up upgrading.

Prerequisite?

None beyond age 10+ and a basic comfort in water (swim 100m, float for 5 min).

Where is this dived?

With iDive in Goa or any SSI centre worldwide. Cert is identical.

Why not just do Open Water?

Some travellers only have 2 days. Some kids/parents prefer a smaller commitment. Some divers know they'll only dive on holiday, 12m is enough. All valid reasons.

Is the Scuba Diver cert recognised everywhere?

Yes, at every SSI-affiliated dive centre worldwide. You dive supervised by a Pro (instructor or Divemaster), but you'll always have access.
