My Scuba diving experience at Sitra Bahrain

My Scuba diving experience at Sitra Bahrain

 


Scuba diving is a type of underwater diving whereby divers use breathing equipment that is completely independent of a surface air supply. The name "scuba", an acronym for "Self-Contained Underwater Breathing Apparatus", was coined by Christian J. Lambertsen in a patent submitted in 1952. Scuba divers carry their own source of breathing gas, usually compressed air, affording them greater independence and movement than surface-supplied divers, and more time underwater than free divers.

 

My self and family decided to go to Scuba diving at sitra Bahrain.it is around 200 km from Saudi Arabia. Through KING FAHAD CAUSE WAY after immigration check we reached Bahrain

KING FAHAD CAUSE WAY (short note)

1986, the causeway has streamlined commerce and strengthened cultural and social bonds between Saudi Arabia and Bahrain.

  1. Total length: 25 KM (16 miles)
  2. Width: 23 meter (75 feet)
  3. Constructed by:  Ballast Nedam (Dutch based construction company)
  4. Construction Cost:  US $ 800 million



After 2 hours driving we reached Bahrain. 



We have booked a resort, our boat and scuba trainer was waiting for us at the resort. To reach scuba diving spot we must 20 km on boat.


Our trainer is a Bahraini and has 8-10 years of experience in diving. The cost of diving is 500 SAR with 2-3 hours of diving experience. Basically scuba diving is adventurous. He gave us a class on how to take breathe at under water, what are the diving signals for communicating at under water. What are costume we should wear. How to read oxygen cylinder meter gauge.The total wait of diving apparatus is 20-22 KG including weights.

 

After reaching at scuba diving spot we wore our breathing apparatus including oxygen cylinder. At ist we need to practice breathing at low level water, later on we can go to deep and deeper after full confidence, scuba diving is a simple technique that we can learn in 2 hours of time
