Sorry for barging in but I just wanted to confirm that this makes sense after getting Open Water certification: It's best to just do a bunch of dives, and then certify for the Deep Adventure Dive if you want to go deeper, right? What's the "Search for Sunken Galleons" certification people ultimately go for?

IMO: do OW, dive a bunch, then do advanced (which does deep) and do buoyancy as one of the specializations.

No idea what Deep Adventure Dive is, but if you're worried about the scuba police you don't need to be. The goal isn't to get "legal" to a depth ASAP, it's to build the fundamental skills ASAP.

Awesome, thanks. Any tips on finding reputable places in vacation spots to dive a bunch? I'd rather not just dive in a tank a bunch, unless there's a good reason to.

How long until Australia�s Great Barrier Reef is all bleached?
