The SSI Open Water Diver course makes you a certified diver in south-ari-atoll, with the freedom to dive to 18m on the same reefs that border the whale-shark protected area. SSI's flexible, performance-based training suits the atoll's relaxed island pace.
SSI Open Water Diver provides free digital materials, lets you repeat performance-based skill sessions until mastered, and issues a globally recognised SSI digital card valid to 18m.
Confined and open-water dives use South Ari's calm house reefs and reef flats from 5-18m, well suited to new divers in warm, clear water. Once certified you can join excursions to the atoll's whale-shark area and manta-frequented thilas.
