chinaman asked in TravelAsia PacificPhilippines · 1 decade ago

If I had CMAS 1 Star C-Card, and the Dive Shops in the country are mostly PADI, will I be allowed to dive?

CMAS Certification is cheaper than PADI, and where budget is constrained, will having a CMAS-Americas 1 Star (Open water) C-Card be recognized by Dive Shops?

    You should not have any problems. The divemaster may ask you some questions or do a check dive first. I’ve rarely been asked to show my PADI certification they just take you at your word.
