Vacation Advice Needed! Where Can I Go That Has Both Scuba Diving And Mountains?

My husband is a fish out of water – scuba diving, snorkelling, etc. I love the mountains – peaceful, cool, quiet. I want to go on a second Honeymoon, but I don’t want to drag him someplace or be dragged. Is there a cruise that would visit both mountains and reefs? Where should we go?

Is Scuba-diving A Relatively Safe Activity For Teens?

My teenage son is taking scuba-diving lessons right now. In all honesty, it is really difficult for me personally but I don’t say anything to him. . . I want him to have these experiences. However, I have had some personal experiences with the ocean/sharks that have added to my dread of diving. If you have been diving before, I would love to hear some of your personal experiences (preferably positive) or words of wisdom that may lessen my anxiety for him. Thank you!

I have asthma, and it scares me to know i’m so far away from oxygen. A lot of people that have scuba dived have told me you don’t feel it but I don’t want to take a chance. What should I do? I am 16 years old.

Is It Possible To Go Scuba Diving If You Have A Perforated Eardrum?

My wife has always wanted to learn to scuba dive, but she has a perforated eardrum from a series of bad infections when she was young. She is concerned that if she does go, it will rupture her eardrum and she will lose her hearing. Our doctor is not sure what will happen, and I can’t get any straight answers from the guy that runs the local dive shop. Is there some kind of a cover or plug she can wear to protect that ear when she dives. This is one of her dreams to learn this, and I really want her to be able to learn.

My husband and I are interested in scuba diving during a trip to Jamaica this summer. Is it better to get certified before we go there or to do it when we are there? If we do it while we are there how long does it take and how expensive is it usually? Is it even necessary to have a certification?
