SSI Extended Range Diving Courses:

From SSI XR Foundations programs in Twinset or Sidemount Configurations to the SSI XR 45, without forgetting the Technical DPV Specialty Course.

If you are interested in starting your XR journey but don’t know yet where to start, read our comprehensive guide on Technical Diving Courses in Bali. At Nico Dives Cool Bali, we specialize in transitioning experienced divers into the world of technical exploration by providing high-end equipment and the specialized gas-blending infrastructure required for deep diving. Our personalized approach ensures that you don’t just “pass” a course, but truly master the equipment and procedures necessary to manage the increased risks of the technical environment.

Begin your technical diving journey by learning technical basic skills in our SSI XR Twinset Foundations workshop, which focuses on achieving rock-solid buoyancy and professional propulsion techniques like the helicopter turn and back-kick in a technical twinset configuration. If you prefer a highly streamlined profile for tight spaces or overhead environments, our SSI XR Sidemount Foundations course teaches you the complex task of managing multiple cylinders in technical sidemount configuration with high-level control and perfect balance. These technical foundation programs are the essential building blocks, ensuring your muscle memory is “tech-ready” before you ever introduce the complexity of depth or decompression.

For those ready to go to the next steps and practice true decompression diving, the SSI Extended Range 40 program offers a thorough introduction to decompression diving using high-concentration Nitrox up to 100% Oxygen for a maximum of 15 minutes of accelerated decompression to a maximum depth of 40 meters

To further your expertise and reach “untouched” reefs, the SSI Extended Range 45 course serves as your gateway to deep exploration, preparing you to plan and conduct decompression dives for a maximum of 25 minutes of accelerated decompression using up to 100% oxygen to a maximum depth of 45 meters. Beyond just depth, join us at Bali’s premier dive sites to master the disciplined mindset, total redundancy, and technical precision that define a truly expert diver.

Technical Diving around Bali:

The Bali 30m to 60m best dive spots for technical diving (Open-Circuit and CCR diving).

Join us to explore the best and most exciting Bali Technical Diving Trips. Come and dive on Bali’s deep and untouched dive sites that only technical divers can reach. Our very experienced technical Divemasters and Tech Instructors can guide you all around the island in any configuration you prefer: Twinset, Tech Sidemount, CCR, or even with Technical DPV.

The reefs around Bali are famous for their shallow beauty, but the real magic happens once you drop below 30 meters. For certified technical divers, Bali offers access to incredible deep drop-offs and famous wrecks. You can explore the world-renowned Tech Dives in Tulamben to see the USAT Liberty or head to the Tech Dives in Kubu for the Boga Wreck. For those looking for deep exploration and macro life, the Tech Dives in Amed and Tech Dives in Padang Bai offer an amazing variety.

In the deeper, cooler waters, we often find bigger pelagics. Our favorite is the legendary Mola-Mola Sunfish, which we frequently encounter during Tech Dives in Nusa Penida and Tech Dives in Candidasa. Technical diving is truly the best way to find these giants, as the visibility is better and the reefs are much quieter than in the recreational zones.

Our Bali technical diving expeditions are designed for adventurous divers who want to escape the crowds and experience the island’s most pristine underwater environments. From deep walls to historic shipwrecks, we offer a professional logistics platform that supports advanced mixed-gas diving and long bottom times. Whether you are a CCR enthusiast or an open-circuit twinset or sidemount technical diver, our trips provide the perfect balance of safety, exploration, and world-class marine life encounters.

We provide everything you need for safe and conservative decompression dives in Bali. Our gas fills come from a reputable, high-standard station with strict filtration. From clean air and custom Helium mixes to high-oxygen stages up to 100%, you can count on quality gas for every dive whether you are on Open Circuit or a Rebreather. We handle all the logistics and gas blending so you can focus on the fun, knowing your run times and technical details are fully covered.
