Hi! I am going on a cruise over christmas holiday and would love to go on some dives with my son. He is turning 10 just 2 weeks after the cruise, and reading the PADI certifications 10 is the minimum age for open water diving. I am wondering how hard and fast that rule is - both to get the certification locally and then would there be any problems at the dives?
I certainly understand the safety issues and reason for the age limit, it is just a rare vacation opportunity and he is so close to the age limit.
What do you experts think?
