Just wanted to introduce myself, so hi I’m Adam from Tamworth in the UK.
It has been on my list to do my scuba open water dive course and now I’m finally getting it done. We travel a fair amount to some really nice locations and iv always ended up to snorkelling and always said I’ll do my diving one day so now I’m 42 and finally getting it done with my 16 year old son. Have setup a taster session local to us and then hopefully complete the full padi course with them to open up the freedom of scuba. I suspect I will have questions to follow as I progress but if there is people local to me please get in touch as I would rather go train on recommendations instead of just because it’s local and cheap.

Thanks
Adam
 
Welcome to the forums! I got certified with my son when he was a teenager and it's been a great father and son activity that has taken us on a number of adventures -- enjoy!
 
Hi!!:), I’m new here too. Just getting started with diving after only doing a bit of snorkeling before. Really looking forward to my first course and being part of the community!
