Night & Limited Visibility DescriptionDiving in limited visibility can be an adventure both during the day and at night! Night dives allow you to discover things you will never see during the day. Many sea creatures hide in bright light or sleep during the day and only become active at night. Many corals also only feed at night and so the reef appears completely different at night than during the day, but no less attractive.The SSI Night and Limited Visibility Specialty program provides you with basic information on planning and conducting dives at night and with limited visibility. By participating in this program, you will receive detailed information on the equipment, skills, knowledge and experience required to safely plan and conduct night and limited visibility dives in a buddy team.SSI Night and Limited Visibility Specialty certification opens up many new ways to experience the sport of diving and gain many unique experiences.

Only dive equipment that fits properly and functions correctly will make you feel comfortable and enjoy your dive. Ultimately, when diving, we are moving in an element that is hostile to human life. You should therefore not ignore the safety aspect of your equipment, as your life ultimately depends on it. Perhaps you now understand why every diver should, sooner or later, have their own equipment. In addition to the questions mentioned above, the SSI Equipment Techniques program deals with the selection, proper adjustment and setup of your total diving system, whether you rent or own it. Owning your own Total Diving System leads to more interest in the operation, maintenance and care of the system as well as the correction of minor defects. Knowledge in all these areas leads to more careful handling of rental equipment, as well as extending the life of your own diving equipment. This will increase your fun and safety both above and below the water. The course dates take place with a registration 14 days before the start of the course and a minimum number of 4 students. Our courses can also be booked for other dates at any time, for information please contact 02841-1698673 or info@abc-tauchparadies.de.

Specialty Course Navigation Do you secretly wonder how your instructor always manages to find his way back to the exit or boat?" If so, then the NAVIGATION program is exactly what you need to solve this "mystery". Many of you certainly have a good sense of direction, but unfortunately this will only help you to a limited extent under water, as humans have difficulty orienting themselves in this strange medium under certain circumstances. SSI offers you a structured program on this subject to increase your fun and safety when diving. During the 2 dives of your NAVIGATION program, you will learn various ways of orienting yourself underwater using a compass or natural navigation and determining directions and distances. You will navigate different courses and search patterns, find different marker points and learn how to return to your starting point. If you just want to find out more about navigation, you can also buy the manual without having to take a whole course:Natural navigationNavigation with your compassCombining Natural Navigation & Compass NavigationSpecial situations during navigationNavigation as a sportThe course dates take place with a registration 14 days before the start of the course and a minimum number of 2 students.

This course refines the basic skills you have already learned in your Open Water Diver course and takes them to a new, higher level with the aim of improving your buoyancy and well-being underwater to ensure that you can enjoy every dive.as this specialty does not necessarily have to be taught in open water, it is also ideal for the winter months to bridge this time diving-wise if necessary.prerequisitesMinimum age 10 yearsHave read the theory lesson "Perfect BuoyancyValid diving medical examinationOpen Water Diver certification or equivalentIncluded in the course priceRegistration with SSIstate of the art digital teaching material2 open water divesincluding all tank fillsincluding digital "Perfect Buoyancy" certificationincluding certification as plastic cardThe course will take place if you register 14 days before the start of the course and if at least 4 people register.
