Scuba Diving Courses FAQ

What's the best scuba diving course for beginners to learn to dive on Gili Trawangan?

If you have very little or no scuba diving experience but want to get a Scuba diving license then the most popular scuba diving course for beginners is the Padi Open Water Diver course or the SSI Open Water Course. Both give the same level of certification and are globally accepted scuba diving qualifications. 

What's the difference between Padi and SSI dive courses?

PADI (Professional Association of Diving Instructors) and SSI (Scuba Schools International) are two popular organisations that offer scuba diving certifications. The main difference between them is their certification system, with PADI using a modular approach and SSI employing a more flexible and digital-based learning system. Additionally, some divers prefer PADI for its global recognition (they are a marketing machine!), while others opt for SSI due to its emphasis on personalised training and online resources.

What are the differences between the Open Water Diver course and the Scuba Diver Course?

  • The Scuba Diver Course takes 2 days to complete compared to the Open Water Dive course which takes 3-4 days.
  • The Scuba Diver Course is limited to a miximum depth of 12 meters, whereas the Open water Course qualifies you to dive to a maximum depth of 18 meters.
  • After completing the Scuba Diver Course you must dive under the supervision of a Dive Master or Scuba Diving Instructor, whereas completing the Open Water Diver Course qualifies you to dive with a dive buddy who has the same diving certification level or higher.
