Should you start scuba diving as early in your life as possible to be a good diver?
Not necessarily. Many famous and successful divers took diving up later in life. Children do tend to take to diving more naturally than adults though; for children breathing underwater because a grown up tells them to comes naturally. Some adults really struggle to get comfortable doing it however. If you are young and interested in diving, you should dive because you want to; not because you want to be a great diver. It is not a competitive sport. But it is a lot of fun.
