it seems like a shallow question, but i was just curious why you guys like diving as a recreational activity. i have my "1000 reasons" so to speak. what's yours?

Hey blued! im also from manila, QC actually! oh man, i just really think that our country is a scuba diver's utopia. And you guys, this is a place you must stop off at least once to prompt the natural character of the sport! I swear...

hey hop_derek! cool cool! i know. a lot of filipinos take the beauty of our country for granted. there are so many things here, esp nature, that we should be more aware of.

personally, aside from the fact that i wont fit in my aquarium at home, diving satisfies me because i get the chance to go to different places and see different things first hand! i was always curious with what beauty there is underwater, i dont think i'll ever be satisfied just by staring at it in the pictures!

it's PEACEFUL and QUIET down there! i get to really define FREEDOM! there's also a sense of accomplishment upon reaching those cool places. diving generally takes away stress and worries.

i second you on this. especially the freedom part. it's like you're free to move to any direction with all the beautiful things around to see. i dont know how else to articulate it. you gotta try it to know exactly what we mean:)

hi everyone! I'm margaret from Pennsylvania! Diving for me is passion. I've been diving since I was 15years old.
Just like everyone who's into diving, I really love it top. I normally visit beaches from every place and i do diving whenever possible.

Seeing all the beautiful stuff on the ocean makes me relaxed.

diving is passion...

We normally do diving at Little Camayan Beach Resort in Mountain Top, PA since that's the one of the best diving vacation experiences in PA we had. Like if we just wanted to dive and it's like urgent we end up going back at Camayan, but that's okey since diving there is really awesome.

Was there any pun intended for the "shallow" question? I was looking for my mermaid. Then I found her.
