Take your first breaths underwater with the SSI Try Scuba experience in Djibouti, diving the warm, sheltered shallows of the Gulf of Tadjoura under the close supervision of an SSI professional. You learn a handful of basic skills and make a guided dive to a maximum of 12 metres. It is an easy introduction to one of the Red Sea's quietest reef destinations, with no prior experience needed.
SSI Try Scuba is an introductory experience rather than a certification, delivered through SSI's digital system. The skills you practise can be credited toward the SSI Open Water Diver course if you choose to continue.
Try Scuba uses sheltered, shallow reef sites in the Gulf of Tadjoura, where calm conditions and warm 24-30°C water through the October-to-February peak provide an easy, welcoming first dive.
