Course Overview
When you completed your Open Water certification, you joined a worldwide community of divers who share a love for the ocean. The SSI Advanced Adventurer course is your chance to take those skills to the next level — becoming part of an even more experienced and adventurous diving community!
​
Across two exciting days, you’ll complete five specialty dives, each designed to build your experience and confidence. Every dive gives you a taste for that specialty — an ideal way to explore new diving styles while progressing toward the SSI Master Diver rating.
What’s Included – 5 Dives Over 2 Days
Day 1: Shore Diving at Goat Island Marine Reserve
3 shore dives focused on skill development and precision control.
-
Perfect Buoyancy: Master your weighting, positioning, and finning techniques for effortless diving.
-
Navigation: Learn compass use and natural navigation so you’ll always find your way back.
