If you are: a beginner diver. Useful tips

Diving, that is diving into the depths of the sea to see and perhaps even photograph picturesque corners and landscapes of the sea, has become a very popular pastime among tourists today. But many novice divers do not realize that this sport has its own little tricks and subtleties.

So, it's not a bad idea to know some of the initial terms. For example, the terms introdakshin or introdive are used by experts to refer to a trial dive "in the arms" with a scuba diver. Typically, such a dive costs somewhere around $40. Cheaper rates simply do not happen, at least among bona fide institutions. If the resort offered you a dive for a modest $ 10-20, then immediately beware - probably these scammers, who have no documents and they do not have the proper permit. With such "professionals" diving may simply become a very dangerous occupation.

При выборе клуба, в котором Вы желаете попробовать свои силы в искусстве погружения с аквалангом в морскую пучину, обратите внимание на следующие факторы. Центр должен входить в число тех, что сертифицированы крупными международными организациями в области подводного плавания. Самые крупные и соответственно известные из них – это PADI, CMAS, IANTD, NAUI и др. Так Вы обезопасите себя, ведь такие центры дают гарантию безопасности Вашего здоровья, а все специалисты центра профессионально обучены и имеют высокую квалификацию.

So, you have already decided on the right club and have already signed up for your first test dive. What happens next? - you ask.

1. First of all, you will be obligatorily familiarized with safety procedures. This is a condition from which no decent institution will deviate;

2. Next, you will be asked to fill out a medical questionnaire, where you will need to describe any health problems, if any;

3. Then, actually, diving begins, fascinating and mesmerizing, and necessarily - under the close supervision of an instructor. And it is right, because any little thing for a beginner diver can become a huge problem.

We wish you success in mastering this extreme sport!
