Anyone can
learn to dive and you don’t have to an Olympic swimmer just an average one who
is happy in the water. There are some
restrictions on the depth that children can dive and some medical conditions
can prevent you learning or may restrict what you can do.
Why do I
dive, well it is not just for the marine life.
When you are under the water there is no noise apart from your
breathing. No television, telephones or
music (although this is now possible). It
is very relaxing and time to just chill out.
I have been
diving in Alanya, Turkey for 8 years now and although you don’t have the many coulourful
fish that you can see around the coral reefs of the Red Sea there is still
plenty to get your attention. Along with
the Parrot fish, Bream, Turkish wrasse, you get Moray eels, Pipefish, Calmar, Octopus,
several different Types of Ray and the Nudibranch (colourful sea slugs). Top on everyone’s list are the Turtles and
the resident seal that lives in the Cave (experienced divers can enter this
cave).
We have
several caves that divers can enter and a couple of wrecks to go with the rocks
that are always interesting to look under, you never know what you can find.
So if you
want something different to do come diving, you can always do a Try Dive before
you commit but I will warn you that once you have been under the surface of the
sea you will not want to stop.
