- Take lessons and get
qualified by a certification agency before participating in
SCUBA diving.
- Get a medical examination
from your doctor and take a swim test before learning SCUBA
diving.
- Never dive by yourself.
Find a buddy.
- Listen to and follow the
rules set forth by the person in charge of the dive.
- You can get sunburned doing
scuba diving. Protect your skin by wearing a waterproof
sunscreen.
- Drink plenty of water
regularly and often even if you do not feel thirsty. Your
body needs water. Know the signs and symptoms of
dehydration.
- Be Careful -
Completely check out the dive site, especially the surf
conditions, before making the decision to dive.
- Don't touch! It is a golden
rule under the water. Look and enjoy, but don't touch coral,
fishes etc.
- If you are prone to motion
sickness it may be an idea to take some sea sickness tablets
before leaving for your dive.
Finally - enjoy your diving. |
