Crave adventure, in another WORLD? Scuba Diving may be for you !
That's exactly what we quickly found out. Scuba Diving is really out of this world (At least the one we stand on !)
After years of beating around the bush and trying to find something we could do together that would be new, be a great learning experience, exciting and definitely be a WOW subject by the office coffee machine, a good friend of ours (actually a Dive master, also known as Dan the scuba man) finally convinced us to put on a wet suit, gear up and try scuba diving.
One thing's for sure, this definitely is not the same thing as signing up for a Bowling league and perfecting that hook ball!
Speaking of hooks, after getting through the proper diving course (Very Important!), which includes a lot of interesting and important class sessions, we took our first breaths underwater in our instructors’ pool. What a feeling! But wait, the hook was just being set! During our certification dives, the hook was set forever! At 60 feet, in the Saint Lawrence Seaway in Canada, out in the murky waters... we came upon.....a sunken shipwreck... There it stood in all its glory,The Robert Gaskin, a wooden barge that met it's fate in 1889, still reasonably intact !
That's it, we swallowed the line, sinker and hook.... a fish couldn't be more hooked !
Then we thought, wow, we're certified divers, now what? We live in Canada, where do we go? (And no, we don't live in igloos all year round!)
Well, my better half has been in travel for over 20 years and we sure took advantage of that. Our diving experiences over the years have been fantastic! From Diver wanna-bees, to certified divers, to diving in ship wreck ridden waters of Canada, to diving in the clear pristine waters of the Caribbean and Mexico.
Yes, you can easily do this as well! Much so, that we thought that it would be a great idea to combine our diving experiences and travel expertise and tell you all about it.
How does diving in 2 or 3 countries on one vacation trip sound? Yes, we’ll tell you how to do this by way of using cruise lines to get you there. Enjoy the luxuries of cruise lines and the wonder of the seas. Then dive or snorkel at the various ports of call on your voyage.
Please join us in our journey and we'll tell you about our Scuba diving class experiences, the basics of necessary scuba diving equipment and talk about the dive sites we visited during our travels and those of our network of dive colleagues. Best of all, provide you with great tips on how to get there, where to stay, where to eat and what to do when you’re not diving!
Enjoy !
