Starting your scuba diving journey is exciting—but it can come with a few bumps (or splashes). Most beginner divers make the same small mistakes early on. The good news? They’re easy to fix with awareness and a bit of practice.
However safe diving may be considered, when we dive, we enter a different realm than we’re used to. Different rules apply. Tasks and movements become more difficult underwater, and they often take more time than they would on land — for example, covering a distance.
