OPEN WATER DIVER REFERRAL

Make the most of your holiday with the SSI Open Water Diver Referral Program

Vacation time is precious, and every minute spent on activities you could do at home feels like time wasted. If diving is on your vacation itinerary, you naturally want to spend as much time as possible underwater, exploring coral reefs and marine life, rather than sitting in a classroom. The SSI Open Water Diver Referral program is the perfect solution to make this happen.

Science of Diving Curacao

What is the SSI Open Water Diver Referral Program?


The SSI Open Water Diver Referral program is tailor-made for aspiring divers eager to make the most of their holidays. By participating, you complete all the theory and pool sessions of the Open Water Diver course at a local SSI Dive Center before you go on holiday. This means you only need to complete the four mandatory open water dives in tropical warm waters at your destination. Not only does this save precious holiday time, but it also allows you to become a certified diver faster and more efficiently.

Benefits of the Referral Program

  • More Time to Enjoy: By completing the theory and pool sessions beforehand, you maximize the time you have to enjoy your holiday. This means more time for relaxation, adventure, and of course, open water diving.
  • Stress-Free Learning: Learning to dive in a familiar environment, without the pressure of limited holiday time, makes the experience more enjoyable and effective.
  • Warm Water Diving: Your final dives are done in tropical warm water, which is a much more pleasant experience than in colder water. This makes your first open water experience unforgettable.

How Does It Work?


  • Find an SSI Dive Center in your local area that provides the Open Water Diver Referral program.
  • Complete all theory and pool lessons in your home country.
  • Schedule your four mandatory open water dives at Duikcentrum van de Ven.

  • Enjoy your diving adventures in warm water, knowing that you are well-prepared.
