5.00My 10 year-old son wanted to try scuba diving, so we tried the resort course. The instructor went through the safety lesson, the equipment, and pool time with him. He had some issues with equalizing his ears due to the pressure, but the instructor was patient with him and made sure he was comfortable. He said it was his favorite part of the trip and wants to get certified when he is old enough.
