How strong of swimmer do you need to be to scuba dive?

Simba asked:


I’ve always wanted to learn to scuba dive, but I’m not much of a swimmer. I do know how to swim, but I don’t feel real comfortable in the water. I don’t like to go to the pool or beach, but I really think I would enjoy diving. I would love to see what’s under the surface. To me it would be like a whole other world.

Has anybody had the same experience diving? You dislike swimming or are hesitant to dive? Any advice?
