Take your wreck diving to the next level. The SSI Advanced Wreck Diving Course at Ocean Tribe gives you the skills and confidence to penetrate and explore inside shipwrecks safely. You’ll learn how to plan and execute wreck penetration dives, handle lines and reels, manage gas reserves, and deal with limited visibility environments. This course is taught on real wrecks along Kenya’s south coast — including the stunning MV Alpha Funguo wreck — and is ideal for divers who want to combine history, adventure, and precision.
