Become a fully certified diver with the SSI Open Water Diver course in Tarkarli-Malvan, earned through the digital MySSI platform and four open-water dives to 18 metres in the calm, sheltered bay beside Sindhudurg Fort. You gain a globally recognised licence to dive independently with a buddy worldwide, all on a domestic trip with no passport needed.
SSI Open Water Diver is a globally recognised certification delivered through the digital MySSI platform, qualifying you to dive to 18 metres independently with a buddy. Its flexible, self-paced learning lets you complete the theory before you arrive.
Training uses the sheltered, shallow bay off Tarkarli and Malvan, beside Sindhudurg Fort, and the boat-accessed reefs off Malvan. The water is calm, clear and warm at 26-29C, and in the post-monsoon October-to-May season the Konkan coast stays calm and clear, which makes a forgiving classroom. Expect reef fish, octopus, moray eels and the occasional stingray.
