Scuba Diving “ Imagine ”.

 

 

Imagine a tropical sun kissed Island, white sandy beaches with crystal clear waters, an abundance of natural beauty.

The wind rustling through the palm trees and the sound of the ocean waves trickling up the beach. See changing tones of colour as the reef  progresses to the deep blue drop off and coral wall.

 

Below the surface the sunlight illuminates the soft coral blooms, contrasting an array of colour with the hard coral garden and the sandy sea floor, all highlighted by the clouds of darting reef fish going about their usual business. Follow the slope of the reef down, as the water gets deeper sunlight has less effect and the colours appear darker and more subtle, if you go deeper the spectrum of colours disappear and everything seems to be different shades of brown and grey.

 

Scuba Diving requires expert and professional training, you can choose from several world renowned dive training agencies and associations. More experienced highly trained expert Divers can enjoy different aspects of diving, ranging from exploration of ship wrecks, underwater cave systems, to studying coral reef’s, endless forms of marine life, or even scientific research of complete eco systems.

 

The fast moving pace of digital Underwater Video and photography has made capturing these amazing images more easily and affordable, before digital technology most hobby divers trying to capture underwater images probably only achieved a few usable pictures from the limited 36 frames possible. Today’s underwater photographers are able to view their photo’s underwater and have thousands of frames available to try to get it right.  

 

Scuba Diving allows you to experience a whole new world, with a feeling of freedom and purpose. A very tranquil and quiet

parallel universe, a totally alien experience.

 

If you haven’t tried scuba diving for yourself, I would recommend giving it a go. Not everyone can cope with the concept of breathing underwater, but if you can, and you enjoy the experience, chances are it will become a passion.

 

Perhaps Diving is not for you.

 

Maybe you would settle for the white sandy beach in a blue lagoo.
