Question
I am interested in going to a dive school anywhere from South FL to Brazil. I want to build myself up from the bottom, all the way to Master Scuba Diver. Are there schools that teach mainly scuba diving amongsy other college courses? And if so, how do I find the best one? Thanks for your help.

Answer
Greetings Jesse,

I strongly recommend you go to www.padi.com and look for a PADI 5-Star IDC Dive Center. IDC stands for instructor development course/center.

Although many colleges do offer scuba diving as a college class, most of the top notch recreational dive centers across the US, America, and worldwide are indeed PADI Dive Centers.

Disclaimer: I am a PADI Instructor. I chose PADI for the above reasons.
