SSI Advanced Wreck Diving

Advanced Wreck Specialty

Many of the best dive sites in the world are on wrecks. Over the course of time, countless sea creatures have conquered these impressive structures as habitats, so that you dive through living history on every dive. Wreck diving is unique and incomparable. The SSI Advance Wreck Diving Specialty course teaches you everything you need to know and master in practice and theory to become a safe and confident wreck diver. First, you will learn how to safely plan and conduct dives on wrecks and artificial reefs to a depth of 30 meters without penetrating deeper. You can then try out your newly acquired skills on real wrecks in open water. Upon completion of the course, you will receive your SSI Advanced Wreck Diving Specialty certification. Continue your adventure and become a wreck diver. Start today.

We have two of the best wrecks in the world on our doorstep which makes us a great place to earn your advanced wreck specialty! This course can be done over 2-3 days and takes you through exploring, mapping and penetrating shipwrecks as well as buoyancy control and techniques to avoid disturbing silt or the wrecks inhabitants. We dive the HMNZS Canterbury and the Rainbow Warrior* so you get to see two very different wrecks with very different histories.

*The Warrior is dependent on weather.
