First of all we must make sure we have all our diving equipment ready, in addition to informing us about the place where we will go, we must know what to do in an emergency, whether we move far from the shore, get off a lot or there is any problem with our suit . Secondly we must move to the dive site, it is a unique experience, who has the opportunity to participate in something like this is too lucky, if one day you can enjoy this experience, enjoy it to the maximum and one hundred percent, take many Photos, many videos. We really believe that someday we should enjoy this. So that you can enjoy this wonderful experience a little, you can access the other entries where you will find what you should take, precautions, risks, images and even a snorkeling interview, you will be surprised and delighted.

Diving techniques

Before you can dive independently there are several diving techniques that you need to master. These basic techniques will be treated in each diving course. It is also advisable to read the page with the techniques of snorkeling. Among others, they describe how to empty the mask and snorkel.

Put on the diving equipment

First of all it is important to know how to use the diving equipment. That means that it is necessary to know how to prepare it, put it on and be able to enter the water. It is important that you practice enough to avoid surprises during diving. First start with putting on the diving suit and ballast belt, then the diving vest and the regulator. Before you have to place the regulator to the diving vest and diving bottle so you put everything in once. This can be done easily by putting the set of vertical diving, sit in front of that and adjust all the straps. If the diving set is armed correctly, more accessories can be placed. Finish with the mask, snorkel, fins and if you want gloves.

Diving breathing technique

At first you have to get used to how to breathe through a regulator. During the diving courses pay close attention to this. The advantage of using proper breathing techniques is that it allows the body to use the oxygen in compressed air more effectively. In other words, with a correct inhalation you can stay longer under water.

It is important to always breathe calmly and not save air. There is always a moment that will use more air. If one of the two partners has no air, it is possible to share it. In this case, your partner breathes through the replacement nozzle to share the compressed air. In this case the immersion ends and both partners rise together to the surface of the water.

Diving techniques to get on and off

If you are as a diver lighter than the amount of water that moves, you keep floating and that is called a positive buoyancy. On the other hand, if you are heavier you have a negative buoyancy and it will sink. This physical law is used in diving to get on and off (read more about diving physics). Buoyancy can be adjusted with the help of your ballast belt, lungs and a diving vest.

A ballast belt is used to go deep as soon as your dive begins. The diving vest is used by filling it with air through the inflator to increase buoyancy and therefore to climb. Finally, more air in your lungs means a larger positive buoyancy. Therefore you will rise slightly when inhaling and lower when exhaling. Due to a correct combination of all these techniques you can stay at the desired height and also in a stable position. In terms of diving it means that you have a good “neutral buoyancy”. Read more about buoyancy control.

How to get into the water

There are several ways to enter the water with your diving equipment. In most cases it is lowered by the shore or from a boat. It is possible to enter forward and backward. Another option is a roll forward. In all cases it is important to have a firm nozzle and mask so that water does not enter through the jump. It is also important to have the diving bottle against your back (keeping the diving vest firm) to prevent the bottle from ending with a slap on the back or release when you hit the water.

One way of frequent use to enter the water is the giant stride entry. He stands upright on the side and puts one foot in the water. With one hand it holds the regulator and mask and with the other hand the strap of the diving vest. The following video shows how to enter the water with the giant step.

Find out about the snorkelling.

Snorkelling is the practice of swimming on or through a body of water while equipped with a diving mask, a shaped breathing tube called a snorkel, and usually swim fins. In cooler waters, a wetsuit may also be worn. Use of this equipment allows the snorkeler to observe underwater attractions for extended periods with relatively little effort and to breathe while face-down at the surface.

Snorkeling is a popular recreational activity, particularly at tropical resort locations. The primary appeal is the opportunity to observe underwater life in a natural setting without the complicated equipment and training required for scuba diving. It appeals to all ages because of how little effort there is, and without the exhaled bubbles of scuba-diving equipment. It is the basis of the two surface disciplines of the underwater sport of fin swimming.

Snorkeling is also used by scuba divers when on the surface, in underwater sports such as underwater hockey and underwater rugby, and as part of water-based searches conducted by search and rescue teams.
