My wife and I are going to Maui next week for ten days, we had been planning on getting certified after our trip when we had more funds, but have found a deal for $189 through Maui Divers. We already have the basic gear (mask, snorkel, booties, and fins) and have read the PADI book and watched the videos.
Who has gone though maui divers and had an experience, both negative and positive?
Once my wife and I get back to California we plan to save up for a few months and get the full setup, including drysuits eventually. Once we get the full gear we both plan on taking further instruction.
What are the pros and cons of getting certified now? The biggest pro that I can think of is that my wife is a marine biologist with 10 years of dolphin training experience but is held back from career advancement by lack of certification. The biggest con is that we'll miss a potentially life threatening piece of advice by taking an accelerated course.
Please weigh in quick if you can, I'd like to book it in the next day or two if I decide to go!
Thanks!!!
