SCUBA diving offers a multitude of benefits to its participants.Diving helps to keep you fit and healthy, although of course you do need to be in a relatively good state of health and relatively fit in order to scubadive. Scuba diving will bring you into contact with people from all walks of life from all over the world. Dive training teaches you that you should never dive on your own as you never know when you might need a helping hand. Diving then is a recreational "team" sport, and so is a great way to meet people and get to know them really well in a relatively short period of time. You do not have to be a strong swimmer to become a SCUBA diver, however you should be able to swim to some degree. Most recreational dive training courses are open to people from the age of 15 through to seniors (assuming they are fit and healthy). Diving is also open to both sexes, offering no performance advantages to either its male or female participants. Also as diving is not a competitive sport, there is nothing to win or lose making it a much more enjoyable shared experience for everyone.

The most widely recognized diving qualifications are awarded by the PADI organization (PADI stands for the Professional Association of Diving Instructors). Most dive comapnies the world over will accept PADI accreditation as proof of your ability to dive and most of them will also be able to put you into contact with a PADI approved training center if you want to learn how to dive or you wish to upgrade your existing qualification and/or level of ability.
