Embark on a journey into the underwater world with our SSI Basic Diver course in Argelès-sur-Mer. If you are a complete beginner, this scuba diving course is designed to introduce you to the wonders of the ocean while ensuring your safety and confidence. We will be diving in an exceptional setting with rocky reefs, home to exceptional biodiversity: groupers, octopus and sea bream will come to greet you.
The SSI Basic Diver qualifies you to:- Dive to a maximum depth of 12 metres/40 feet
- Dive with a scuba diving instructor by your side
ProgrammeOnce the booking is completed, we will send you all further instruction to access the SSI elearning portal. You will have to download the application, create a profile, and then, we will send you all necessary information to access the material. Please read all the needed modules before your first dive.
We meet at the dive centre in Argelès-sur-Mer. There are free & paid car parks near the port. One of our instructors will welcome you and give you your diving equipment. Then we will take the boat to the dive area, do a short introduction about all the basics of scuba diving, and dive a first time. Next, comes a picnic, that we will take on the boat, and once our batteries are recharged, we will dive for a second time. At the end of the activity, we will bring you back to the dive center.
