I was on facebook earlier and stumbled upon a post asking for advice on a dive destinaion for a woman to take her two sons who were recently certified. One of the comments shocked me, it stated:
"Remember-- you are only supposed to dive in the same waters you were trained in!!!! If they didn't do ocean then they are not supposed to"
This made me think a multitude of questions:
1) Who teaches this?
2) Why would you convey this information?
3) Does this not discourage new divers?
4) Does this sound like a money scam or what?
5) How does this make sense at all?
I am relatively new to diving, I got certified March of 2014 and have 30 dives logged so far but this just makes no sense to me at all. What is y'alls take on it?
