Scuba diving and the park rides

[JoeCathyAngelina]

Does anybody know if it would be a problem to go Scuba diving one day and doing the parks the next day?:
We're planning on going Scuba diving about 60 feet down and we want to do the parks the rest of the week.

No issues

No issues

I'm not sure what you mean by "no issues".

Do you mean, go to the parks, go on the rides, go Scuba diving, nothing to worry about ?

thanks for responding.

I've been an active diver for 40 years and I can't think of a single reason why amusement rides @ WDW would be contraindicated after diving inside of 'table' limits. As PP said, you'll be near sea level ... Space Mt ain't THAT high!

IF IN DOUBT ..... contact DAN .... are you a member?

I'm a pretty conservative type person when it comes to my diving, so on the "shaking up the bubbles" theory, I might not get on a roller coaster within an hour or two of diving, same as I wouldn't go on a hike or do other exercise. Riding a roller coaster isn't exercise, but it is an intense experience.

But by the time you've gotten lunch and rinsed out the wetsuit, I really doubt any trouble remains. You certainly don't need to worry changes in elevation.

And you don't need to be a member to call DAN- they are very good at asking questions. I wouldn't dive without their insurance though!
