I tried scuba diving while on vacation. It is fun (at least in warm waters ). I was doing some research in NY/NJ area for certification lessons. Looks like the cost is around $350 for 2.5 days of training. I was wondering if I need to buy any gear while going to these lessons.

Unless you plan to dive a lot, I would always recommend renting the gear (although you may want to invest in a rash guard or, if you have problems renting wetsuits, a 5mm shorty). Most places make you buy your own mask, snorkel, and fins before taking certification classes.
