It's Coming Back
Helmet diving, or "Surface Supplied Diving", is making a come back! Proponents say it's easier and safer for amateurs to use helmets for shallow dives than scuba tanks (the old canvas full body suits are gone though). Tourist resorts throughout the Caribbean and the Bahamas offer helmet dives - no PADI certification needed.
It's a great way to take an underwater walk on the reef, and you can hold a conversation with your buddies while you're down!
It's Simply The Way It MUST Be
