Overview
Whether you're an aspiring diver with zero experience or a travel-savvy adventurer looking to earn two certifications in one trip, this SSI Combined Diving Course in Semporna offers the perfect underwater introduction. Hosted by Infinity Scuba Dive Centre – the first SSI-accredited training facility in Semporna – this comprehensive programme includes both the Open Water and Advanced Adventurer certifications under the internationally recognised SSI system.
The course is fast-tracked for absolute beginners, guiding you from "never dived before" to a certified diver capable of exploring depths of up to 30 metres. With all logistics taken care of, including dive gear and instruction, the convenience is unmatched, especially with accommodation right above the dive centre itself (subject to availability). Perfect for those early-morning starts or drying off post-dive, the setup is tailored for travelling divers.
Choose between two packages: a 6D5N course focused on core training and exploration of Semporna’s spectacular island reefs, or the 7D6N extended option with guaranteed diving at Sipadan, one of the world’s most coveted dive destinations. Both routes offer immersive learning and unforgettable marine encounters, just minutes from the coral-laced waters of Mabul and Kapalai.
