You’re Booked for an SSI Snorkelling Tour

Before you complete payment, there’s one optional upgrade we’d like you to consider.

This isn’t about adding complexity —
It’s about choosing the option that gives you more access to the underwater world, better value, and future flexibility.

See the SSI Try Scuba Upgrade


IMAGE SLOT 1 — “Surface vs Below” (Hero Image)

Placement: Immediately after the intro paragraph
Purpose: Visually show what changes

Best image:

  • Split-level or paired image:

    • Top: snorkeller at surface

    • Bottom: diver below with reef/fish

Alt / description (internal use):
“Snorkelling at the surface vs scuba diving below the reef in Malta’s clear water”


Why This Option Is Offered Before Payment

We show this upgrade now because it’s the only point where:

  • Package pricing is lower than booking activities separately later

  • You avoid repeating briefings and setup if you decide to continue diving

Once payment is completed, this option is no longer available at the same value.


What You’re Currently Booked For: Snorkelling

IMAGE SLOT 2 — Snorkelling Context Image

Placement: Directly under this heading
Purpose: Reinforce, not oversell

Best image:

  • Calm snorkeller above reef

  • Sunlight, shallow water

  • No dramatic fish schools (keep expectations honest)


Snorkelling is a relaxed surface experience and a great introduction to Malta’s coastline.

It includes:
✔ Guided swimming at the surface
✔ Mask, snorkel, and fins
✔ Viewing reefs and marine life from above

What it doesn’t include:
✖ Breathing underwater
✖ Descending below the surface
✖ Moving slowly through the reef

Most marine life and structure sits just beyond snorkelling depth.


The Upgrade: SSI Try Scuba (What Changes in the Water)

IMAGE SLOT 3 — First-Time Scuba Experience

Placement: Immediately under this section header
Purpose: Desire + reassurance

Best image:

  • Student diver with instructor close by

  • Neutral buoyancy

  • Eye-level reef interaction

  • Calm body language (no “action pose”)


SSI Try Scuba allows you to enter the underwater environment rather than observe it from above.

With this upgrade, you will:

  • Breathe normally underwater using scuba equipment

  • Descend slowly and comfortably with an SSI instructor

  • Move alongside the reef instead of floating above it

  • See marine life behaviour, colour, and detail that isn’t visible from the surface

Why This Makes Sense — Experience & Value

IMAGE SLOT 4 — Malta Visibility / Space

Placement: Optional, before bullet list
Purpose: Anchor Malta advantage

Best image:

  • Wide-angle shot

  • Clear blue water

  • Diver small in frame to show space & calm


Guests who start with snorkelling often decide they want to try scuba once they see what lies below.

Upgrading now:
✔ Costs less than snorkelling first and adding Try Scuba later
✔ Includes SSI credit that applies if you continue to Basic Diver or Scuba Diver
✔ Means one briefing, one equipment setup, one smooth experience

It keeps your options open without committing you to a full course.


“I’ve Never Tried Scuba — Is This Too Much?”

IMAGE SLOT 5 — Reassurance Image

Placement: Under heading
Purpose: Reduce anxiety

Best image:

  • Instructor holding student’s hand or OK signal

  • Shallow water

  • Clear facial expressions (mask-visible if possible)


No. This program exists for exactly that reason.

  • No prior experience required

  • No exam or certification pressure

  • Constant instructor supervision

  • Shallow depth and gradual progression

You stay in control at all times.
