Get certified with the SSI Open Water Diver course on Neil Island, training over four dives on the Andamans' calmest reefs where clownfish, parrotfish and the odd turtle appear at gentle depths. Free SSI digital materials let you learn the theory at your own pace before you arrive.
SSI Open Water is delivered free through the SSI digital app with performance-based, repeatable confined-water sessions and four open-water dives, certifying with an SSI Open Water Diver digital card.
Training dives use Neil's protected reefs like Nemo Reef (5-12 m) and Coral Safari (5-20 m), building to 18 metres where green turtles, snappers and feather-tail stingrays roam. The gentle November-May season and 27-30C water make Neil one of India's most relaxed places to learn.
