Does anyone have their SCUBA certification? If so let me know and what are some good places that you have been to that are great for dives?

I am not a certified SCUBA person or any expert in this field, but the most amazing place I ever went was right off of a beach on Eleuthera Islands in the Bahamas. It was like entering the largest and most amazing aquarium ever!

I spent a week of just snorking and scuba diving. It was way better than Hawaii and other tropical place I had traveled because the water was so clear and the aquatic life was so brilliant in color and such.
Plus we had an entire beach to ourselves most of the time. I didn't want to leave!

This video below doesn't even do this experience justice... and it's not the exact same location... but forward it to about 2 minutes into the video and this was what I saw all around me, but even more so. It was mesmerizing.

Here's an article I found sort of confirming what I am telling you from first-hand experience.

Good luck in your decision!!! :-)

(let us know what you decide too)
