It's possible to get both at once if you're physically fit, but it's not recommended as diving is very exhausting. Diving certificates are valid long-term and globally recognized, but AOW allows you to explore more dive sites. . 2️⃣Certification Tips Make sure to study the theory and watch the videos before entering the water, otherwise, you won't understand what the instructor is doing and can't communicate underwater, leading to confusion. You don't need to know how to swim to get certified, but it helps. You can't fly within 12 hours after one dive, and within 18 hours after two or more dives to avoid decompression sickness. Prepare an electronic version of your ID photo; the instructor will issue the certificate the same night after passing. . 3️⃣What to Bring for Your First Dive ✔️Rash guard (can be worn under the wetsuit for protection and sunblock) ✔️Prescription mask (wearing contact lenses underwater can be uncomfortable) ✔️Quick-dry towel (absorbs water quickly and dries fast) ✔️Dive socks (to prevent foot blisters), flip-flops ✔️Coral-friendly sunscreen, lip balm ————
