Oxygen becomes toxic when under pressure, so at depths greater than 42 metres, special gases with low oxygen are used.

↝

How fascinating, isn't it? 😯

What are the different types of DIVING? 🤔

Here is a list below and most of them are exactly how they sound! 🙌

↝

1. Drift diving:
It is a type of scuba diving that is planned to allow scuba divers to travel through the natural water currents flowing around them.

2. Night diving:
Just as it sounds! It is done during the night time to explore the mysteries of the underwater world.

3. Deep diving:
A dive is considered a ‘deep dive’ when the scuba diver goes further than 18 metres below surface level.

4. Cave diving:
Many scuba divers are huge fans of cave diving, which takes you exploring the ocean’s many passageways, crevices, and passes but definitely not for the claustrophobic 😅

5. Wreck diving
Do you like exploring wrecks underwater? Then this one's for you!

6. Open water diving
This is probably the type of diving that you’re used to.

7. Technical diving
Technical diving is a step above recreational diving, and you’ll need more than just an open water certification to do so. This is something we do!

8. Rescue diving
Rescue diving is diving in response to emergency situations underwater, usually ones by other scuba divers.

9. Ice diving
Ice diving is a fantastic way to discover the isolated strange creatures living below layers of ice. To go ice diving, you’ll usually cut a hole in the ice with a chainsaw, attach to a special harness kit, have a special regulator that can function in temperatures well below freezing without faulting, and need a drysuit or thick wetsuit warmed with hot water.
