Being Good Diver is not about Certificate. Let's Go Diving!

All divers start from the basic diving certification called Open 1st Scuba Dive Lesson. All starts from here! Water Scuba Diver (SDI) or Open Water Diver (PADI) or equivalent. This certificate let you go scuba diving all over the world to the maximum depth 18m. Many divers stay with this level, enjoying beautiful coral reef and marine creatures, etc. Colours still stay well above 18m, so most dives will be nice and relaxing.  What's the next level? Advanced Adventure Diver (SDI) or Advanced Open Water Diver (PADI) or equivalent certificate will let you go diving maximum 30m deep, giving you more chance to go scuba diving. It won't be colourful like shallow diving but when there are ship wrecks at that depth or something else to see, you will not miss the opportunity.

Scuba diving is great adventure for people who love Sea/Ocean and marine creatures. Underwater Camera is one of the way to have fun in Scuba Diving. When I took a camera for the first time, I encountered Manta Rays..one shot at a far, 2nd shot coming closer, and 3rd shot right above my head!!

Paralenz  DiveCamera+ is perfect for someone like me!! It ha
