How PADI divers see an over-romanticised side of diving

 

Whilst it is true that divers are at the beach every weekend the location is not quite that nice. Some of us are or were in the mountains every Saturday and in the lakes every Sunday. We did have to wear shoes because the dive site is a lake. We don’t all drink beer and are not always salty. What you will have to get used to is that 6 or 7am wake up to be at the dive site by 8 or 9 in the morning. You will also need to get used to the bath being used to rinse off all of the diving equipment Sunday afternoons. You won’t need to get used to beer drinking because not every diver drinks beer.

Underwater diving videos

I’ve been watching a series of underwater diving videos from around the world from the website divefilm and there are a number of interesting ones.

Most of them are by the same person but occasionally there are guest appearances by those aiming to protect whales, others aiming to protect dolphins.

There are also some videos showing the “shower” fish, those cleaning other fish.

It’s an interesting collection of videos. A little different from other videos I’ve watched.
