SSI Scuba Diver is a streamlined entry certification for Sharm El Sheikh visitors with limited time who still want to dive the Red Sea properly. Using SSI's digital materials, you learn the essentials and complete supervised training dives on calm reefs near Ras Katy, certifying you to 12m. It is a flexible stepping stone toward full Open Water status.
SSI supplies free digital learning materials and a digital card. Its performance-based approach lets you repeat skills until you are confident, and all work counts toward an Open Water upgrade.
Calm, shallow Sharm reefs like Near Garden and Ras Katy give easy 0-18m entries and clear 20-30m visibility. The coral gardens are busy with reef fish and morays in pleasant 24-28C water.
