Become an SSI Night Diver.
Night diving requires different skills from diving during the day and the SSI Night Diving and Limited Visibility specialty is the best way to learn about night diving and practice the techniques you will need to become a safe and confident night diver.
Diving in the dark is nothing like diving during daylight hours and adds a certain spice and excitement. Your favourite dive site can seem like another world when you explore it in the dark.
Upon completion, you will earn the SSI Night Diving and Limited Visibility specialty certification and be ready to go night diving with confidence.
