I would like to go scuba diving on Catalina island for my birthday next month. I don’t have any experience and I am staying there for four days. I would like to just learn how to scuba dive and go on a diving trip that lasts just for a few hours or so. Is there a place that teaches you, gives you a scuba diving trip, provides you equipment, and is affordable in one place? Or should I just forget it?

You can take a “resort course”. This course will expose you safely to one dive.

In California, PADI (www.padi.org) gives a list of SCUBA certification places. PADI is located in So Cal.

Is it possible to go scuba diving once on Catalina Island if you have no past experience?

I grew up in So. Cal in the 50′s and 60′s and remember enjoying a local broadcast on channel 5, 9 or 13 about scuba diving. The guitar riffs at the introduction were from a popular song at the time, I believe.

Does anyone remember a So. Cal local scuba diving tv program that started out with a surf guitar solo?
