What You Should Know Before Your First Scuba Dive

If you’ve ever wanted to explore what lies beneath the ocean’s surface, now is the time to try scuba diving! Scuba diving is a thrilling way to experience a totally different world — filled with breathtakingly beautiful landscapes, vibrant and diverse wildlife, and plenty of adventure. While scuba diving can be an incredibly rewarding activity, it’s important to recognize that it can also be dangerous if done wrong or without knowledge. That’s why taking a basic scuba course is essential in order to learn how to breathe correctly while underwater, control your buoyancy, and stay safe in open water. With your instructor helping you every step of the way and these helpful tips, you will soon feel like an underwater native!

Pick the right day for your first Scuba experience:

If the weather conditions are looking favourable, then take the plunge and give it a go! Be sure to keep an eye on the waves before you dive – they can make it difficult to reach your destination, and can also create troublesome underwater currents. If things don’t look quite as good as you’d hoped, don’t be afraid to hang tight and try again another day.

Ask everything

Before you embark into the underwater world, make sure that you don’t leave any questions unanswered. Down there, it is hard to communicate and it’s important that you understand the protocol and safety measures. Therefore, it is paramount that you ask your instructor all the questions that come to your mind. Doing so will bring you a tranquillity and security during your dives.

No touching

It is important to remember that when you are out on the ocean, it is best to observe underwater life from afar rather than handling or touching anything. Although it may seem safe, there are many organisms in the water that can be harmful if touched. So take a moment to appreciate the beauty of the sea and its creatures without having physical contact. Don’t touch anything!

Moving is tiring

When swimming underwater, try to minimize your movements as much as possible. This will help you conserve body energy and oxygen since water is 800 times denser than air, requiring much more effort to move through it. Consequently, staying still can help you save valuable air while keeping your stamina up throughout the dive.

Be an excellent partner

When diving, your partner is one of the most important factors for a successful and safe dive. You need to make sure that you both have the same level of experience, understand each other’s limitations and health concerns, communicate underwater effectively and have functional equipment. To be an excellent dive partner, you must always be willing to support and look out for your fellow divers.

Prepper mentally and physically

To be safe and successful when diving, it is important to prepare both physically and mentally. Make sure your physical fitness is up to the task of being active in the water for an extended period of time and make sure your attitude towards any potential issues that you may face is positive. By controlling your nerves and keeping a good outlook, you will be properly prepared for whatever comes your way.

Equipment check

Prior to diving, it is important that you thoroughly inspect the equipment you and your partner will be using. Make sure to check your wetsuits, fins, masks and other items for any wear or tear. Additionally, ensure that your neoprene and goggles fit comfortably so there are no safety issues during the dive. By taking a few moments to check the equipment before starting each dive, you can be confident that everything will go off without a hitch!

Ready to take the plunge and try out scuba diving for yourself? Whether you’re a seasoned swimmer or a beginner, all it takes is the proper training, preparation and guidance to ensure that your dive is safe. Follow the advice from our experienced instructor and make sure you keep in mind all of the important safety tips. So get ready – there’s nothing quite like experiencing the wonders of underwater life firsthand!
