Best Answer

You don't need a licence to go Scuba diving, but most people need to undergo formal training before they can scuba dive.

Different agencies will take divers at different agencies, but the bigger agencies will usually not train anyone younger than 10 years old. However, some agencies insist that a student be 16 or 17 before learning to dive.

Most agencies will allow divers to be certified as young as 10. However, some require you to be 12. A few have the minimum age as high at 16 or 17, but they are unusual in this regard.

Do you have to be scuba certified to go diving?

Most diving locations and resorts require you to be certified to dive. That is because they done want a bunch of dodoheads going to the hyperbaric chamber. I would recomend you get certified. It costly usually under $300. However, if you are desperate, there are some (very few) locations that will go over Scuba diving with you (not certify you) before you dive.
