SSI Advanced Adventurer in Gili Trawangan
The SSI Advanced Adventurer programme runs over two days and five dives in Gili Trawangan. Sessions cover buoyancy, fish ID, deep (30m), wreck and navigation skills.
About the programme
The SSI Advanced Adventurer course at DPM Diving in Gili Trawangan is a two-day, five-dive programme for Open Water-certified divers wanting to reach 30 metres without written exams or theory classes. All training is practical and water-based, with the instructor reviewing performance after each dive. The five specialty dives are: Perfect Buoyancy (trim, weighting and air consumption), Fish ID (identification of common reef species), Deep Dive (descent to 30 metres with gas planning and narcosis awareness), Wreck Dive (external wreck protocols and safety) and Navigation (underwater compass work and natural navigation).
Each adventure dive corresponds to the first dive of the equivalent full specialty programme, so the experience can be credited toward those certifications later if the diver decides to continue training in any of the five skill areas. Prerequisites: a valid Open Water Diver certification from any recognised agency. The 5,400,000 IDR price includes a professional SSI instructor, full dive gear, the SSI Advanced Adventurer certificate, all certification fees, five dives and snacks on board.
A standard SSI medical questionnaire is completed before the course. A one-time National Marine Park Fee of 100,000 IDR is paid separately in cash. Bookings via WhatsApp.
Where the Advanced Adventurer dives in Gili Trawangan
Four different sites cover the five adventures. The night dive is at Halik Reef, which genuinely changes after dark, with hunting cuttlefish and open coral polyps. The deep dive goes to Shark Point at twenty-five metres, the wreck dive to the Bounty platform on its shallow slope, and navigation runs over the flat coral of Turtle Heaven.
Meno Wall, a vertical drop between Trawangan and Meno, is the buoyancy option: pygmy seahorses, frogfish and ghost pipefish only reward a diver who can hold position without touching anything. All of it is within a twenty-minute boat ride of our pier, in 27-30 °C water.
Dive sites are chosen on the day according to weather and sea conditions.
