Scuba Diving

Scuba Diving

Explore a whole new world you’ve never seen before. We first got our Open Water Scuba Certification back in 2016 on Koh Tao island in Thailand. We loved scuba diving so much we immediately got our started our Advanced Open Water and completed it a few days afterward.

Since then, we have dived in Thailand, Honduras, and Indonesia; on multi-day liveaboards and right from shore. Our dream spots to go diving are in Egypt, the Galapagos, and the Maldives.

Whether you’re a dive master or discovery diver, there’s so much ocean to explore we recommend scuba to everyone who is able. Read along our experiences diving for underwater wanderlust!
