Do PADI certifications expire?
No, your certification will not expire. As an PADI Open Water Diver, your certification is good for life. If you do not actively participate in scuba for an extended period of time, however, it's a good idea to refresh your skills through the PADI ReActivate class.
Why are PADI ecards so expensive?
PADI insists on issuing a plastic card for new divers, while charging exorbitant prices for the electronic version. They say they pride themselves as stewards of the ocean while preferring to charge you for a modern convenience that would reduce plastic use. ... PADI introduced their e-cards in 2012 at a cost of $37 USD.
What is good visibility for diving?
Some, as a rule of thumb, define the viz as the vertical visibility (the depth where you can no longer see the surface) minus 3 m / 10 ft. Probably a good guideline, but useless in most of the tropics, where the viz always exceeds the dive depth. Try to use anything you have to your advantage.
What tide is best for diving?
Under most circumstances, diving at high tide yields the best visibility because it brings with it clear, offshore water. If you think current may be a factor in your dive plan, the ideal time to enter the water is around what's termed a slack tide.
How much wind is too much for diving?
So how much wind is too much for diving? Force 4 to 5 with wind speeds of between 13 to 24 mph (20 to 38 km/h) can be too much wind for diving, as this can produce wave heights of up to 3 metres (10 foot). When you bear in mind that many diving operations will cancel dives with wave heights of 5 foot and over.
How do you log dive on PADI app?

Can Apple Watch be used as a dive computer?
Once you hit 500m and up/down, a watch is good for all aquatic activities and happy to accompany its owner during serious scuba (any dive deeper than 18m/60ft). The Apple Watch will never be a Rolex Submariner. But I reckon Apple will increase the Series 6's water resistance to 50m/165ft.
