As it is 9 years since I qualified it is worth mentioning that the age limits for training are anyone over the age of 10, with no upper age limit, though many UK dive sites will not allow divers under the age of 12 in to the water under any circustances so for me Id be happy to quote 12 in the UK, and 10 anywhere warm (as long as you go to a repuatable centre). If you are under the age of 10 then there is an entirely pool based course you can do but wont allow you to dive out of a pool environment.

I became a Padi Open Water diver at 58yrs old. I took the course with The Scuba Trust. This is a charitable organisation that teaches or retrains disabled people to Scuba dive.

The course can take as long as you like with them. There is no hassle. They are very patient and everything is explained but they do like you to help out wherever possible. They are some of the nicest people I have ever met. Finally getting to swim in beautiful blue water and view the fish as you have never seen ...

First things first, SCUBA is not any more dangerous than any other activity you might care to do on your time off work, as long as you have been trained and take care to follow the things you learn training there is no reason you should suffer any injury greater than the odd broken toe (dont drop weightbelts on your toes!) or bruises (try not to fall over the rocks when hopping around on one foot having just dropped a weightbelt on your toe). For many people the lure of the ocean is great and a large number of people will take those first steps abroad somewhere nice and warm, others will choose to learn back home, where they can take their time and not spend ...

I have just completed my PADI Open Water certificate and have to say WOW what a feeling you get when you experience the sensation of weightlessness (is that a word) under water. Hanging there watching the fish go by as you breathe underwater is like nothing I have ever experienced before it is totally amazing. This is to introduce you to the PADI Open Water qualification that allows you to travel the world and scuba dive to a recommended maximum depth of 18 metres using compressed air with a buddy (friend or partner) of the same standard or higher. PADI (Professional Association of Diving Instructors) PADI is the worlds largest diving ...
