Diving with unfamiliar equipment is just as uncomfortable as driving a strange car. How do you actually know that your rented equipment is in perfect condition and works properly? Are diving centers abroad subject to the same rules as here in Germany? only diving equipment that fits correctly and works properly will make you feel comfortable and enjoy your dive. At the end of the day, we are diving in an element that is hostile to human life, so you should 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, correct adjustment and setting of your Total Diving System, whether rented or owned, you can find more information on our website or just give us a call without obligation.

The Indoor Diver course is a great way to start diving in the winter and then practice your skills independently until spring. It is identical to the Open Water Divers course and differs only in that all open water dives are done in an indoor center, where you will learn everything you need to start your diving adventure. Just like your driver's license, the Indoor Diver course has different sections that you complete one after the other and/or in parallel.you can find more information on our website or just give us a call.

Don't feel confident in the water yet and are unhappy with your diving position and air consumption? Would you like to stop worrying before every check dive and finally float relaxed over the reefs instead of plowing through them? To become a good diver who is relaxed underwater, perhaps the most important aspect is perfecting your buoyancy control. Good divers know that good buoyancy control reduces breathing gas consumption, reduces the amount of weight and effort required and makes it easy to maintain depth. This has a massive impact on your well-being under water, you prevent your own injuries and also protect aquatic life.

Occasionally you see more and more divers who no longer dive with one or two tanks on their back (backmount), but carry the tanks on their side (sidemount). But why do they do this and are there any advantages over the other system? sidemount diving was developed by wreck and cave divers, for whom the most hydrodynamic position possible was important in order to fit through narrow and small passages. In the meantime, more and more divers are discovering the advantages of this diving style, which is characterized by more relaxed buoyancy control and better freedom of movement without the tank on the back. As this system requires different handling than conventional systems, it is important to learn how to use the sidemount system correctly and safely. For more information and a no-obligation consultation, simply give us a call. We look forward to hearing from you.

The SSI Scuba Diver is designed for those who do not have enough time to complete the full Open Water Diver program. The program corresponds to the first half of the Open Water Diver program and can be upgraded to the SSI Open Water Diver through additional training and theory units. What can I do after completing the course? The course provides you with the necessary training and experience to be able to dive safely in open waters under the supervision of a dive professional, as you learn all the important diving skills, knowledge and equipment. However, this certificate does not allow you to dive alone with a dive buddy. Throughout your training and afterwards, you will be accompanied by an experienced diving professional who will make sure that you feel safe and comfortable and that nothing happens to you. Certified scuba divers may only dive to a depth of 12 meters when accompanied by a diving professional. After successfully completing your course, you will receive the SSI Scuba Diver certification.

How many times have you wanted to continue your dive, but unfortunately your no-decompression time was reached and you had to surface slowly, or do you just wish you had more safety margins in terms of nitrogen saturation on your dives? Nitrogen is the regulating factor for all dives in recreational diving, as you already know from your Open Water Diver course. Nitrox refers to all gases with an oxygen content of more than 21%. The higher proportion of oxygen reduces the nitrogen content in the breathing gas, puts less strain on the body and significantly shortens your desaturation times. you can find more information on our website or simply give us a call with no obligation.

The SSI Advanced Open Water Diver program allows you to gain new, interesting and practical experience. You can choose five dives individually from a variety of specialties without having to take a full course in those specialties.

If one of the dives is from the Deep Diving section, you will extend your depth limit to 30 meters. Your dives will of course be credited if you decide to complete one or more of the specialties.

How does your instructor or dive guide manage to find their way back to the exit without signs, a navigation device or similar aids and wouldn't it be a huge gain in comfort and safety to be able to do so?During the Open Water Diver program you have already learned the basics of underwater navigation, but most people simply dive after the dive pro. Knowing where you are at all times is extremely important for your safety and well-being underwater. Good navigation skills will enable you and your dive buddy to navigate safely from the beginning to the end of the dive.You can find more information on our website or simply give us a call with no obligation.

Have you ever noticed that even your familiar surroundings look different at night or in poor visibility? And I'm sure you know that animals that are on land during the day sleep at night, but who or what is on the move then? dives with 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. you can find more information on our website or simply give us a call with no obligation.
