Q: How old do I have to be to dive?
A: You must be 10 years of age or older to learn to scuba dive or take
the one-day Discover Scuba Diving ("Resort") course. The child must be
able to:
-- Fit the equipment available
-- Be both mentally and physically able to participate in the course.
Between 10 and 15 years of age, a student completing the open water
diver course will be given a Junior certification. They must dive under
the supervision of an adult (parent or instructor only between 10-12)
until the age of 15 years, when their certification will be automatically upgraded.
