Hi All newbie diver here thanks in advance for your responses. I recently took my open water certification required 4 dives in Ixtapa Mexico. All went without a hitch and the dive conditions were great, although I don't have anything to compare my experience to yet. Question is when I took my PADI classroom training it was communicated that we should always do a safety stop at 15 feet for 1 minute upon ascent. the dive master in Mexico didn't do this and neither did any of the other 4 divers in our group. Little confused, should I be doing a safety stop ? or did I misunderstand the requirements ?
Last 2 dives were at a depth of 60 feet.
Thanks for your assistance. Any feedback much appreciated.
