Check the yellow pages under scuba, then go and talk with the instructors. Find the one that seems too meet your needs. All agencies are basically the same too a certian degree. I personally have certs. from PADI,IANTD, and SDI/TDI, they all have certian aspects of efficiancy. Just remember that SCUBA is too be FUN!!

Definitely - couldn't agree more with that statement. If you don't like your instructor, you're going to have problems. Oh, and as for gear, Scubatoys.com or Leisurepro are the places to go. Leisurepro doesn't always carry warranties on everything, so I would go with Scubatoys for now.
