Cursos Disponibles
3 cursosOpen Water Diver
The SSI Open Water Diver is the standard entry-level certification — the one that opens up independent recreational diving worldwide. At Tarraco, the course is structured in three clear sections: four theory sessions, four confined water (pool) sessions, and four open-water dives. The pool phase is where the foundational skills get locked in before moving to open water. For most people it's the part that matters most — building muscle memory with the regulator, mask, and buoyancy control in a controlled environment before you're working against current or dealing with reduced visibility. Open-water sessions take place on the Tarragona coast, which the center describes as having rich marine life and good visibility across much of the year. The specific sites aren't named on the website, but the center operates from the marina at Port Esportiu, which puts the dive sites within straightforward reach. SSI's Open Water Diver certification is among the most widely recognized in recreational diving. Small group sizes mean the instructor has real time with each student, which tends to show in how confident people feel by the final dive.
Scuba Diver
The Scuba Diver program is the entry point for anyone who wants to try certified diving without committing to the full Open Water course upfront. It covers the first three modules of the SSI Open Water Diver curriculum, so nothing learned here is wasted — if you decide to continue later, those modules carry straight over. Once certified, the Scuba Diver qualification lets you dive anywhere in the world to a maximum of 12 meters, provided you're with a dive professional. For a first certification, that covers a solid range of sites along the Tarragona coast, where the center operates out of Port Esportiu. The course is run in small groups, which is how the center approaches all its programs. That matters at the beginner level: more time with the instructor, less waiting around, and a pace that adjusts to how quickly each person gets comfortable with the gear. The center works under SSI, and the Scuba Diver card is recognized internationally. When you're ready to continue, the remaining modules of the Open Water Diver are available here as a direct continuation.
Specialty Diver
The Specialty Diver program is the logical next step after Open Water certification. To earn the SSI Specialty Diver qualification, you complete two specialty courses and accumulate twelve logged dives in total — a combination of classroom and in-water time that builds both knowledge and real dive experience. The center runs this program under SSI and offers it alongside the rest of their course catalog. The specific specialties available aren't listed on the website, so it's worth contacting them directly to confirm which ones are running at any given time. What the program does is give post-Open Water divers a structured way to keep improving rather than just clocking up dives without a clear direction. Two specialties is enough to diversify your skill set meaningfully — whether that ends up being navigation, night diving, or something more technical depends on what the center offers and what you're aiming for. The center also references Barcelona and Lloret de Mar (Costa Brava) as locations where the program can be completed, so there may be flexibility on where sessions take place depending on scheduling.
