I had the choice of either one, I went to one dive shop that offered PADI certs and really didnt like they way the people got right up in your face and said you needed this and that before you start the class.Originally Posted by Evan Jamison
I went to another shop that was NAUI and totally different, very friendly people and very knowledgeable about everything and didnt try to sell me anything (except an underwater DSLR camera). Told me I didnt need to buy anything for the class and all the rental gear was included in the class price. So I went with the NAUI shop.
