Becoming A Diver Will Change Your Life

Becoming a diver is not just a passport to a whole new world, but it may just possibly change your life. Firstly, you will be able to breath underwater, putting you up there with Aqua man and the man from Atlantis. Then you will have the ability to explore the ocean and encounter its inhabitants face to face. Becoming a diver will change your life.

After becoming a diver, with every dive made, you’ll start to notice some changes on your way of living and the way you travel!

You’ll care even more about nature and the environment

If you already cared about the environment, that’s great, but as a diver you’ll realise how much the marine life relies on us and our protection. Making saving the planet and its oceans a daily mission.

You’ll feel healthier mentally and physically

Scuba diving is a wonderful sport for mind and body. Not only does it help you build muscle and stamina, but it can also lead to a reduction in stress, anxiety and depression. Scientific studies confirm that time in the water helps our brains relax and releases happy hormones. Simply making scuba diving super healthy for you.

You’ll want to visit the underwater world at every opportunity.

When you’re underwater, no one can reach you. There’s no Facebook Messenger, no text messages, no emails and no TikTok to contend with. It’s just you, your bubbles, your buddies and the underwater world. The next time you’re in the office or the classroom, you’ll start to think about when you can escape to the underwater world at every opportunity.

You’ll check the world map for diving destinations, rather than bars and beaches for your next vacation.

Soon enough, you’ll realise that the world is a playground for divers. There are many amazing places in every corner of the planet offering amazing diving! Believe us, when you’re hooked on diving, you will want to dive all of them.

You’ll learn to pack like a pro

As soon as you have your own equipment, you’ll feel forced to pack light to avoid extra baggage fees. In no time, you’ll be packing like a pro and will be more selective with what you really need to take.

You’ll discover a new knowledge of marine species

One of the most exciting parts of diving is spotting new and interesting marine life. Mantis shrimp, bull sharks, leafy sea dragons, nudibranchs and so many more creatures await you in the depths. In the process of learning to dive and then diving all around the world, you’ll learn more than you ever thought about marine life, and you’ll be able to impress your non-diving friends with your newfound knowledge and skills.

You’ll make new friends for life

The best way to make new friends is to have common interests. The good thing about scuba diving is that you’re constantly encountering other people who love scuba. On dive boats, during your Open Water Diver certification course or on your diving vacations, you’ll meet new dive buddies, who will become friends for life.

You’ll realise that you will never see the entire planet in one lifetime

When you begin to explore the underwater world, you will realise how immense it is, and how a lifetime is not enough to see it all. Even if you visit all the existing countries, you still won’t have seen half of the planet, because 70% of Earth is water. A diver is lucky to be able to explore just a few percentages beyond 30%.

You’ll feel how short life is but also feel like you’re really living

Either on the surface or underwater, life is short, but becoming a diver, you’ll appreciate being alive just to be able to see how amazing sights in the underwater world is. You’ll enjoy every moment of your trips underwater.
