I have always heard or seen the video of scuba diving, but I never had an personal experience of scuba diving. The trip was completely a holy/religious trip with my parents. I have a wish to make them visit all the 4 dhams of India. I already had made them visit Puri, Rameshwaram. This trip was to Dwarka(one of the 4 dham). To my amazement, I found there is a scuba diving at Shivrajpur (Gujurat). So I thought ‘why not give it a try ?’ It was breaking a new ground for me. An unplanned adventure which turned out to be a majestic plan at the end.
I visited the place at 3pm. I had to fill certain form before going for this diving. The form just ensures that you are not suffering from any medical ailments which might risk your life. And also the form ensures that I am taking my own risk of going for this diving, so if any mishap happens , I will be responsible for that. The fee was 2500/-. The team took me deep inside the Arabian sea 🙂 I had to wear the skinny outfits, check oxygen mask working before making the plunge of my life 🔥
I slowly dipped inside the sea with oxygen mask. Belive me or not, there was immense pressure on my ears. I felt like I will not be able to do it. I told the guide “something is wrong, I want to go to the surface.” After coming to the surface of sea, team guided how to use my breath. Then I again attempted to go inside. This time it was better and smooth, and I went deep inside the sea. They had the go pro set up. There was a guide at my close proximity ensuring I am safe. Below is the video. A once in a lifetime experience I must say.
Also let me tell you, It is one of the blue flag certified beach of INDIA…🌊
