I have recently met a friend somewhere out of town. Since he was from out of town we talk alot about things in our country and things in his country which is Brazil. Well to end the long story, he visited me in my city since he was very interested to try scuba diving which is a hobby of mine. True to my word, I brought him on a scuba diving activity and he was very happy indeed. He also had the chance to do a little fish feeding. I talk a picture of the dive which made him proud. Well, scuba diving is indeed fun and very much exciting. If you have not tried it before, then you should.

Wow, it always amazed me seeing other people doing scuba diving...swimming with fishes under the sea and discovering underworld is fun. I am not a swimmer at all so it is really impossible for me to try one. but if i had something on that will help me breathe under water, i guess i would go for it...but with accompany of course who is a swimmer and would help me when i find it hard under the sea...

hi annavi, there are a lot of people who does not know how to swim but do scuba diving. I to have the same thought as you before. I thought that someone really needs to know how to swim in order to dive. When I tried scuba diving, that was then that I realized that it is not necessary to know how to swim so that someone can dive. I have many friends who really are not swimmers but do scuba diving. Perhaps later on you should give it a try. I assure you that it is really wonderful down there.

Cebu has several good diving spots around Mactan Island alone you have more than 10 diving places. In the main island of Cebu especially in the Southern portion there are more than 15 sanctuaries with wonderful collection of fishes with over a hundred species including sharks and "butandings".
Unfortunately if the tourist who frequents these diving spots. There are still less Cebu locals enjoying these treasures of Cebu.

I haven't tried scuba diving. With your post, it seems fun and enjoy when we do this activity. Maybe I should try it sometime. First thing though, I need to learn how to swim. :)

Yes, scuba diving is indeed fun and wonderful. Many people assume that if you go scuba diving you need to know how to swim. But that is certainly not the case. You need not know how to swim in order to dive. In fact, swimming is more tiring than scuba diving. So try it out later on. I am sure that you will love it.

Wow.. That's great.. I haven't tried it before, but I'm willing to try it soon.... I'm not a good swimmer but I enjoyed going to the beach and swimming together with my friends. Do they require a license for that?

Well, you should try it later on. It does not matter if you do not know how to swim. Diving is great since you can breath underwater, all you need to do is Lear the basic skills on how to use the gear and you are all set. Yes, diving requires a license, but there are certain programs like discover diving wherein you can try scuba diving and experience the thrill... That is why they call it discover and from there you have the option to proceed and take a course to obtain a license.

The world under water is very very beautiful and interesting that is what i have seen in discovery channel. Actually i am fond of a discovery channel for the same reason. But unfortunately i do not know the swimming or rather i am afraid of water because some of my near and dear have drawn in it and lost their lives. But i do prefer seeing the scuba diving.There is certainly a special thrill, something exciting, dashing and enjoyable and adventurous.Better i would like to encourage and boost others from sitting outside and clapping happily.

Yes, the world underwater is definitely amazing. I do hope that you will be able to try it out soon, what I mean is the scuba diving. Many people thought that you cannot do scuba diving if you do not know how to swim. But that is far from the truth. Yo never need to know how to swim if you want to do scuba diving. So just try it out and I am sure you will certainly be amazed.
