Seriously, thanks for the advice so far, I guess my best option will be to complete over here but assuming the regulations there are so relaxed I could probably get some dives in anyway for some open water experience before I complete here, I'm visiting as part of a wedding party and another member of our group is an experienced diver so I've already got a buddy lined up! |
If the regulations were so lax that any one could get in a car and drive down the M1 at any speed (and did) would you do it with out any lessons?
Complete the course over here so that you have some real life expirence and some confidence before going in the sea. Without doing so best case is that you dive and spend all your time aclimatising, middle case is you shoot to the surface and spend time in the pot and have to pay becuase your insurance wont cover it, worst case you ruin the wedding in a most inappropriate fashion.
