experiences with big ocean creatures in their natural environments.

Once you become a certified diver a whole network opens up to you as you become part of the
diving community. Share stories, favorite dive sites, great holiday locations, and amazing underwater photos with
other divers and discover new diving opportunities. Ask around at your local dive shop to see if they have a
diving group, often they will plan weekend dive trips and dive vacations.

land but the local underwater reefs and marine life of the destination as well.

We all know breathing underwater is not natural. On top of that you have to wear a bunch of equipment.
You have to trust yourself and your instructor. You have to be willing to try new things and push your limits.
5. Learn Something New
Scuba diving is much more than just sticking a regulator in your mouth and breathing underwater. As a
diving student you will need to understand dive theory which is strongly concentrated in physics and physiology.
Young people can enjoy scuba diving.

The only skills you need to dive are to be able to swim and breathe. Before you begin you will read and
watch videos about diving, then your instructor will go back over the important points. The course starts with
simple skills and gradually builds on them to build your confidence.

phones to answer, cars honking or air pollution. The only thing you will hear is yourself breathing.

11. Swim Through History
Not only does diving allow us to see the strange underwater world but things more familiar from our own
human history. There are thousands of wrecked ships and airplanes that sit at the bottom of the ocean, many
of which are from WW2. With a wreck diver specialty you will learn how you can safely swim through them.
12. It’s a Life Long Activity
Just because you are growing older doesn’t mean you have to stop diving. As long as you have good cardiac and pulmonary
health you can continue diving well into your older years. Dive centers even accommodate older
divers by giving them extra assistance and attention.
13. Experience Some- thing You’ve Never Felt Before.
Scuba diving allows you to experience many sensations you have most likely never felt before.
The key to diving comfortably is call neutral buoyancy, which means that you aren’t floating up
or sinking down. It’s the easiest way to experience weightlessness without going into space. You will
also experience breathing underwater, which might sound a bit scary at first but through practice
it becomes so natural you don’t even think about it.
