SSI's Advanced Adventurer course in Pondicherry lets you sample five different adventure dives across the Bay of Bengal, including deeper sites like the Aravind Wall. It's the fastest route to deeper certification and to finding out which specialties you'll want to pursue on India's east coast.
SSI's Advanced Adventurer uses digital materials and a performance-based model, with each adventure dive counting toward the matching specialty, certifying with a digital SSI credential.
SSI Advanced Adventurer dives span Pondicherry's reefs, wrecks and the deeper Aravind Wall around 30m across the Bay of Bengal. Five dives in calm Oct-May conditions and 27-30C water bring you face to face with stingrays, moray eels and reef fish.
