Which is a more desirable certification, NAUI or PADI? I have read that if the instructor is good, then the skills learned are comparable.
But I was also told that in certain countries PADI isn't recognized/ accepted - such as in the French Caribbean. This was told to me by someone who is a diving instructor in that region, but considering this guy was full-of-it on so many other topics I'm skeptical about this.
Has anyone encountered a situation where they were not allowed to dive, based on the company they got their cert. through?
