"If the Sharks die, the Sea dies!” SSI and SHARKPROJECT have decided to actively support the positive image of sharks by founding the SHARK DIVER Program.
Experience the fascination of sharks in an unforgettable way! Divers and non-divers have the chance to find out more about sharks and to learn the correct techniques when meeting sharks. Dives are optional in this program and therefore it is a perfect “holiday-prep-specialty” before your diving vacation starts.
You will be able to apply the knowledge you have gained to future shark dives. SSI is donating 10% of the income from SHARK DIVER Specialty Program to shark preservation. As a participant in the program you are making an active contribution to help secure the survival of sharks.

Combine other specialties while taking the SHARK DIVER course like the DIGITAL UNDERWATER PHOTOGRAPHY program. The possibilities are limitless!
Many of you may already have a digital camera system and a proper underwater housing. As such, it’s likely you are asking yourself how to take better pictures. Now a structured program is available to answer your digital underwater photography questions which means more fun and satisfaction in diving.
The DIGITAL UNDERWATER PHOTOGRAPHY Program can be learned in the pool/confined water or directly in the open water. This makes this a perfect “year-round specialty” which can be completed just before your dive trip starts.
