You just need a PADI Open Water certification or equivalent to rent tanks or get air fills. You don't need to be some fancy technical cave diver. The most basic license will suffice.
- jessaustin 9y agoThose who have that certification are not "uncertified divers".
- socialist_coder 9y agoYou aren't supposed to be able to dive at all without a certification. So the term "uncertified divers" makes zero sense. So, if you're "uncertified" and you somehow managed to get yourself a filled air tank, then my point still stands: you can go down to however deep you want. And the basic open water certification is not much more than a rubber stamp. Anyone can get it as long as they pay their $100 to PADI or whoever else.
- loeg 9y agoHow do you think people go about getting a certification? Uncertified people have to be able to dive with an instructor or there would be a chicken and egg problem becoming certified.
