Well I don't have one either but that did not stop me in Bahamas. My resort offered a half day training with the gear in swimming pool and then a half day on the reef. Depth was never greater than 30 ft. so we didn't have to learn decompression. We learned how to replace the mask if it comes off, how to check gear over etc. Do a couple of laps under water and viola. They never took anyone that was not 100 % comfortable with the gear. IT WAS FREAKING AWESOME!

I saw a lobster the size of a Labrador(slight exaggeration), countless barracuda and a couple of sharks. Coral and coral fish that put any reef tank in perspective, IE nothing but a goldfish bowl.

If you get a chance go for the 30 foot dive!
