I totally fell in love with snorkeling when I went a few years ago in Maui. I mostly like hanging out with the fish and turtles and taking photos (I know, that's another forum ) and I'm not too keen on running into big scary things down there so I didn't really want to scuba. My dad was just telling me about how nice it is to not have to keep going up to breathe and just being able to follow what you want to follow so i'm reconsidering. I'm a good swimmer and know that I would take to it quite naturally.
I live in Seattle and am going to Maui again for two weeks in March. Should I get certified before I go? Would that mean I would have to dive out here in the cold waters in Seattle? Shouldn't I just wait until I get to Maui or would I be wasting valuable vacation time? Can I split it up - like take classes here and dive indoors in a pool or something (that's how my dad did it) and then do one open water dive when I get there and be done? Where should I do all this?
TIA
