I love it! Somehow I was able to "shallow" scuba dive when I was on an island in the Caribbean as a teenager. I think we were somewhere in the range of 20-30 feet underwater with scuba tanks .. I can't recall wearing a wetsuit but the water was like being in a bath so it probably wasn't necessary.
The best part (for me) was: No certification needed! We were given a 15 minute tutorial about equalizing and a scare story about not rising up too fast.
I love it, and would love to get scuba certified to do some barrier reef scuba!!
Maybe you did 'discover scuba diving' where you get to try to dive even without the certification. It lets you decide if you want to proceed with open-water course.
Yeah, I will continue the scare story here on steemit 😊
Hurry, the barrier reef is dying.
Yeah, it is very possible / likely that I did a discover scuba diving Excursion. Or I just found a "shady" shore excursion in the Caribbean in the early 2000s haha. I'll hope that it was all safe and legal and allowable and such :)
I know :( the poor barrier reefs are all in danger from dumb people. I need to make some solid plans to cross off a bunch of my bucket list items, before I kick the bucket too far down the road!
Hmmm maybe, sometimes not haha. I have known some shady practices of scuba dive shops lol, we are just talking about life anyway.
Okaaay, I hope you dive the barrier reef soon!
