DIVING TRIP

A diving trip typically refers to a recreational excursion or vacation in which individuals or groups engage in underwater diving activities. The primary purpose of a diving trip is to explore and experience the underwater world, including coral reefs, marine life, shipwrecks, and other interesting underwater environments. During a diving trip, participants typically use scuba diving equipment, which includes a mask, snorkel, fins, wetsuit or drysuit, and a tank of compressed air or other breathing gas. Professional diving guides or instructors often lead these trips to ensure the safety and enjoyment of participants, especially if they are less experienced divers.
