Take your first steps toward scuba diving certification with the SSI Basic Diver program in the lagoon of Bora Bora, one of the most beautiful places in the world to learn to dive.
Under the supervision of a professional SSI instructor, you will complete two guided dives on two different sites, reaching up to 12 meters deep, in a small group of maximum 4 people. No previous experience needed, your instructor will teach you everything before you enter the water, at your own pace.
This program credits you with one dive toward your SSI Scuba Diver or Open Water certification, which you can continue within 6 months, making it the perfect first step if you want to keep diving after Bora Bora.

What to expect
Your experience starts with a safety briefing and an introduction to the basic scuba diving equipment and techniques with your professional instructor. You will learn essential skills and how to feel comfortable breathing underwater before entering the water.
Once ready, enjoy two guided scuba dives of ~45 minutes each in Bora Bora’s crystal-clear lagoon. You will explore the underwater world at a maximum depth of 12 meters (40 feet), surrounded by colorful tropical fish, coral formations, and the incredible marine environment of French Polynesia. Your instructor will be by your side throughout the experience, adapting the pace to your comfort level and ensuring a safe and enjoyable dive.
This SSI Basic Diver program does not provide a certification upon completion, but it allows you to continue your scuba training within 6 months toward your SSI Scuba Diver certification (up to 12 meters) or Open Water certification (up to 18 meters). The program also credits you with one dive toward your future training.
