Scuba Diving is a hobby that is exponentially growing in popularity around the world. As much as it is exciting it can also be quite dangerous, so keep these few tips in mind on your next dive.
Good Go/No Go
This essentially involves trusting your gut instinct. If you feel that there’s potential for something to go wrong, and you feel uncomfortable going ahead with the dive, then trust your instinct and bow out.
Keeping a Log
Whether you have done a couple of dives or a couple-hundred dive, keeping a log is one of the best ways to stay well-informed about your rate of oxygen consumption, weighting, and necessary gear. This is will prove to be invaluable when it comes to planning dives.
Relax
Most divers get too excited and try to descend too fast, and that scares away a lot of marine life. If you’re vacationing at one of many diving resorts Maldives has to offer, like Anantara Veli Maldives Resort then you wouldn’t want to miss out on the best experience you can obtain.
Never Forget the Buddy Check
Always check if your partner’s equipment and set up is in order, and have them do the same for you. This simple procedure greatly reduces risk.
