Discuss MackTheKnife's answer to: Scuba diving requirements

The idea of scuba diving, to search out for things previously undiscovered is appealing. How do I go about doing this? Is there a course or an age limit that is required?

MackTheKnife Answered:

As long as you're physically able to put on all the equipment and you have no health problems then you you'll probably be able to do a basic course. but if you are underage you will need permission from your parents.

The basic course will enable you to dive to a depth of up to 30 metres. If you want to dive deeper you will have to do special courses and there may be more restrictions on those.
