hell no :|
yes I did my check out dives there and it was a great experience!!
yes. when you take the required training to dive you will learn everything you need to know to be safe as you dive. as always theres always risks to things. same as taking a risk when you drive a car or ride in a airplane.
France I had my first dive there and they just let me straight in to open water diving up to 10 m and it was only 40 euros
The interesting thing about scuba diving, is legally, there are no licenses or certifications required. The problem arises, however, that while scuba is an extremely safe sport, some training is required to make it safe. And from a liability standpoint, dive shops, and dive resorts will not rent gear, or take people diving unless they can show a scuba license (or C-Card - certification card) from a recognized training agency.You can take classes locally or online that teach scuba diving, and upon graduation from the class, a certification card (which resembles a credit card) with your name, date certified, etc is given. That card will be required in most any location in order to dive.There are different levels of certification, Open Water Scuba Diver, Advanced Scuba Diver, Rescue Diver, Divemaster, Instructor, etc, and by taking additional classes, someone can gather more experience, education and certifications.Beyond recreational diving, there are courses for technical diving including deep, mixed gas, cave diving, etc, and there are also commercial dive courses covering everything from underwater welding, inspection, etc.
Perfectly safe. You may not be if you join them

Yes there are sharks in Jamaica but nothing too scary, the main sharks will be reef sharks bith black and white tip. You may get the rare tiger or bull shark but they are few and far between. I've been scuba diving in Jamaica, but have yet to see a shark.
Usually it is fine. Air has been filtered before being compressed in the cylinder, and it does not go "off". However, if it is a really really old cylinder, the cylinder itself may have deteriorated and may not be safe to use until it has been hydrostatically tested.
DEFINATELY NOT!!!! The largest pressure change is between 30 feet and the surface, You could give the Baby decompression sickness without showing symptoms yourself !!!You shouldn't scuba dive during pregnancy, the safety issue really hasn't been ruled out, but I wouldn't risk it. On the health waiver form, it asks if you are currently pregnant or trying to become pregnant, if maked with a "yes". They will not allow you to dive. I'm guessing it's not a good idea. If you are a regular diver it probably won't do any harm but it is not something to do for the first time.
