Scuba Diving

By: Arran Rabel

One of the most popular and exotic water sports in the world is scuba diving. Exploring the depths of the oceans appeals to many adventurous people. If you enjoy this sport, you might like exploring shipwrecks, swimming with many species of fish, or interacting with sharks. The certification process isn't hard, although the equipment can be expensive. If you don't have the resources to buy scuba gear, then you will find rental shops at the best diving sites.

The Great Barrier Reef in Australia is bar none the best place in the world to scuba dive. There are hundreds of fascinating species of tropical fish, marine mammals, and the reef itself is truly breath taking. The weather is beautiful year-round and there are many accommodations in the area. If you are a novice scuba diver or require certification there are many companies that offer expeditions and lessons in the Barrier Reef area. If scuba diving isn’t your thing, you can always give snorkeling a try. The Great Barrier Reef is a natural phenomenon that should not be missed, be sure to explore this protected underwater oasis on any trip to Australia.

Another amazing reef lies off the coast of Mexico on its eastern coast. It's the second largest scuba diving area in the world. This reef is in the Caribbean Ocean, which is warm water. There you will view tropical fish of numerous varieties, living coral reef, and if it's your lucky day you might even run into a sea turtle or two. Sadly, the reef has sustained terrible damage from recent hurricanes. Since this area thrives on tourism, you will find a number of adventure tours to transport you to the best diving locations.

If you stay at an all-inclusive resort in the Mayan Riviera, as it is known, most resorts offer certification and guides to take you out to spectacular scuba locations. Several hours are spent learning how to scuba dive in the hotel pool, and when everyone is ready off you go on a scuba adventure. Many people are leery of being scammed or taught by someone who is not a professional, going through your resort almost guarantees your safety and that proper techniques will be taught.

These aren't the only areas where e you can find great scuba diving. Besides coral reefs, many love finding and exploring wrecks. Two wonderful areas for this activity are Florida and the Spanish coast.

A word of caution: if you are diving in an area where there is a coral reef, please do not touch the reef at all. It is very sensitive and can die at the slightest touch. Unfortunately it can take many years for a reef to regenerate itself so extra precautions must be taken.

Scuba diving is a great activity that can be enjoyed by people of all ages and lifestyles.
