Scuba diving the reefs and wrecks can be as easy as an introduction into the sport which is called "Discover Scuba Diving". This requires some instruction on using the equipment and techquies used for safety. Your first dive will be not more than 20 feet. Or if one wants to go deeper, there is a longer version which has confined water skill development and a maxium depth of 40 feet. These dives can be used toward future certification which involves watching a DVD, and answering some knowledge review questions, and then taking a 50 questions, multiple choice answer, quiz. Also, you'll have sessions in confined water, like a pool, for skill development, and then four dives over two days which demonstrates the skills you have learned in an openwater environment.

Certifed divers then can dive on the coral reef up to a depth of 100 feet to see the wall with all its sponges and larger coral formation, and to any shallower depth they choose. Even the mid reef at around 40 - 60 feet is teaming with reef fish.

As you develop your skills in diving, you will notice that there is a great diversity of the marine life as one dives the different depths of the coral reef system. Eash time you go diving your level of skill and confort develop to the point you will see more on each dive and recognise new creatures on every dive. Even after thirty years of diving I still find new subjuect matters to photograph.
