My first diving

I was always scared and  astonished with the underwater world, wild, natural beauty and the lovely creatures of the sea that you have never met before, but I didn't know my dream about diving will come true so soon.  Having a holiday at the Black sea in Sudak with my family, we lived near the  Scuba Diving Statation. The team is diving twice a day if the weather allows. The training before the first diving takes approximately 1 hour. The cost was about  $30, so my father, my sister and me diceded to try it. It didn't know  much about diving, so it was pretty scarry.  
First, we were taken to a proper place by boat which appeared to be a nice marine with rocky coast line and there we were given some lessons about diving and the necessary equipment. The hard thing to do was to put in the diving suit that quite uncomfortable on the surface. Then, with the help of a few professional divers, we dive 7-8 m deep for approximately 40 minutes time. First minutes under the water were really difficult, as it was hard to make yourself believe you can breeze freely under the water. For the first munites, I several times tried to get to the surface and take away the mask, but when I finally realized everything is ok and there is nothing to afraid of, I finally managed to see the beauty of colors, nature and fauna. We were diving deeper ans deeper. The maximum depth was approximately 8 m. In 15-20 munites I felt more comfortable with all the equipment and felt what it means to be a fish. The other divers were also close ready to help you. We did it. My father appeared to be almost professional diver. He felt so free there, explored some small underwater caves and tunnels. He even met a huge crab in one of the caves. After an hour spent under the water it was hard to get used to the stand straight on your feet. The boat took us back to Sudak to share our emotions with friends. 

After this course, you can accept yourself " a diver" now; but you are not allowed to go deeper. If you really want to be real professional you have to join one month courses. During this course, you will be trained both theorically and practically. The first practical diving lessons is held in a swimming pool; it takes four lessons, after these lessons, you are allowed to start diving in the sea. At the end of this course, you are given an exam, if you pass this exam you will be given a certificate and an ID card. 

Now, I'm eager to try new places and new seas to dive. There is so many interesting in this world.
