If you are always ready for an adventure and excited to explore what our wonderful planet has to offer, then scuba diving sounds like a perfect activity for you. While discovering the incredible marine life, you will challenge yourself at so many levels you wouldn’t have even imagined- both physically and mentally. Your underwater experience will boost all your senses and open your eyes to a whole new magical world! That’s why, we would suggest you to get yourself scuba dive certification and go for your first dive as soon as you can.
If you are still doubtful whether this is something for which you should spend your time, efforts, and money, then we present here five reasons why you should take that leap of faith in your next voyage.
#1 Take your beach holiday to a new level
If you are already on a beach holiday, then scuba diving can add some extra adventure to your vacation. You can discover new underwater sceneries, species, and maybe even wrecks. Whether you are travelling alone, with partner or entire family, scuba diving is something that most of people would agree to do. This adventurous activity stands out from the rest owing to the magic and ecstasy it offers to the divers throughout.
#2 It’s a whole new world out there
Just dive under the waves and in no time, you will be transported to a miraculous colorful world. Scuba diving is an extremely peaceful experience wherever you are doing it- tropical coral reef or in a cenote. Forget the law of gravity here! You can move freely in all directions without any limitations. For those who want to experience something close to flying, scuba diving is what you should be doing.
#3 More exciting travel plans
You will start to plan your vacations in a completely different way once you have discovered the amazing feeling of diving. You will begin searching for new adventurous places to dive. You may even get engaged in creating your own scuba bucket list. When you start spending time under the water, you will begin loving and respecting marvelous oceans. As much as 70 per cent of the Earth is covered by oceans. So, if you are willing to see the world, scuba diving lets you see the two-third part, which a tiny number of people dare to explore.
#4 Opportunity to meet unique marine animals
The most diverse of marine ecosystems are coral reefs and that’s why, they are also known as the rainforest of the sea. Of course, you must have seen marine animals captured in an aquarium, but nothing compares to watch them in their own habitat. Imagine looking at dolphins, whales, sharks, manta rays, turtles among so many other lovely underwater creatures in their home sweet home! That would definitely be a life-changing experience for you.
#5 You get to explore this awesome world even more
This might be the best reason to scuba dive. In order to fulfill your diving desires, you will start making plans to travel to exotic places. It may change your life altogether. Scuba diving is an addiction; it’s like meditation. To fulfill this dream, you will travel to stunning destinations, spend your days at the beach, sometimes on boat or underwater- all this to share your passion for the underwater world. Your lifestyle will get changed completely as you would be changing destinations every time you want to go for vacations.
Along with being enthralling, scuba diving is also very relaxing as you glide through the water hearing nothing but your breath. This contact with the underwater nature will make you learn more about oceans and respect them even more. Your entire mindset will get changed. Your life would be a whole new adventure.
Our planet is 70 per cent water, but still, we cannot survive in that medium unassisted for a long time. But with scuba diving, this is absolutely possible. You can spend your time comfortably under the water for extended periods. And thus, you can discover marine life you never knew existed before. Even just knowing that because of engineering advancements, you are able to breathe under the water, makes you appreciate your life so much more. Who thought doing this with ease would be possible some day!
If you have made your mind to go for your first dive, then Havelock Island (now known as Swaraj Dweep) in Andaman Island has the best diving spots in India. Diving here will take you far away from all the noise, the traffic and the troubles in the world. Descending into the waters will let you hear nothing but your own breathing. No phones ringing and no talking- only hand signals can be used for communicating underwater. When you are in the mysterious blue world, you completely forget what is happening back on land and what keeps you busy. During your diving time, it’s only you and your thoughts. Nothing else is there to distract or trouble you. ‘Underwater’ is the most peaceful place on earth!
