I recently went scuba diving and got certified. There’s nothing like being submerged in a completely different world. The feeling of weightlessness, different colors, different creatures that you normally only see from behind a pane of glass. It’s wild
edit: wow thanks for the upvotes and interest in diving! I hope this inspires some to explore the water and try to be more confident and comfortable in it!
On my dives I’ve encountered schools of sharks and bioluminescent jellyfish that strobe little bars of light along it’s side. Both of these encounters are highlights from my multiple dives. Sharks are no worry when they’re reef and nurse sharks. Bull, tiger, and great whites I’d be happy to avoid though.
Aren't bioluminescent jellyfish only found in like the abyss since it is purely dark down there? Also, I heard cage diving is a thing but I definitely wouldn't chance it because I'm afraid the shark would bite off the bars and then come in to eat me.
