The SSI Night Diver pathway

The SSI Night & Limited Visibility specialty is delivered through SSI's digital platform and counts toward the Specialty Diver and Master Diver recognition ratings. It combines night diving with limited-visibility skills in one program.

Where you'll dive in Rasdhoo Atoll

Night dives use calmer, familiar sites such as Holhi Faru and Veligandu East, run at slack tide to keep currents gentle after dark. Once the lights come on you will find hunting morays, sleeping turtles, crustaceans and reef fish, with the most settled evening conditions from November to April.
