Old diving tank air extends CSIRO Air Archive

I want to get certified as a diver, then eventually become an instructor. I want to move to somewhere in Indonesia and be a scuba instructor for a resort or something.

What steps should I take? Any tips? Any advice from someone who took this path or a similar one?

I am going to start scuba diving as a hobby and am looking to get some opinions on what type of scuba diving equipment to buy.
UPDATE!!! I’m looking at this mainly as a hobby but also i’m looking at joining the local dive team as i’m in Law Enforcement. If that makes a difference. Thanks

Scuba Diving at the Convention Center — Yes, Really

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?

I seem to remember a story about a couple of daredevils who went scuba diving inside a very large vat of beer at a major brewery, for like 12 minutes or so. The carbonation must have been brutal on the scuba equipment, but I imagine scuba diving in apple juice would be a lot easier. Anyone have any insight about this topic?
