My first scuba dive experience -I did a bubble makers experience at Christal Seas in Norwich.
It was not scary, it was exciting and a little nervous with butterflies in my tummy.
We used some big heavy gear, which strange but fun to wear, I could never carry this on a long trip.
I had fins on – these made me swim really fast, this is the best way to get around underwater.
It was scary as I had to breath underwater, you have a big tank on your back with air in it.
The tank is connected to a BCD which fills with air and makes you float.
I had a mask on and it keeps water from going in eyes, which allows you to see underwater.
I did my first dive with another girl, you should always dive with a buddy.
The most important rule I learnt was “Never hold your breath”.
Now I have a new super power I can breath underwater.
