I got a Groupon offer to "Try Scuba", it is a tease to get you to jump in Full Monty. So it consisted of diving in an eleven foot deep pool. In no more than 30 minutes of instruction we were diving. They gave us 1.5 hrs of pool time. Let me tell you they got me hook, line, and sinker. I want to get certified now, it's a pretty easy process, 2 three hour classrooms, 2 eight hour combined classrooms/pool, and 4 open water dives supervised by instructor, as I was told. Cost is about a $1000 and includes 3 day trip with lodging in San Carlos, Mexico for the open water dives.
Anyone else here a diver?
