Scuba Diving & Snorkeling
Diving and snorkeling are activities to explore the natural underwater life to get a close look at coral reefs, fish, plankton, seaweed, and other underwater life. Scuba diving and snorkeling, although both are underwater activities, but have many differences as follows:
Depth difference
The most basic difference between snorkeling and scuba diving is the depth at which you dive underwater. Snorkeling is done at the surface of the water with a depth of 1-3 meters while scuba diving is done at a depth of 200 – 300 meters or even more. When snorkeling we have to hold our breath to be underwater for a long time, in contrast to scuba diving which can stay in the water for a long time this is because diving is equipped with more complete equipment.
Equipment differences
Scuba diving certainly uses more complete and complex tools compared to snorkeling. When snorkeling you only need diving glassess and snorkel as a breathing apparatus. Meanwhile to do scuba diving requires a variety of equipment such as diving glassess, hoses, oxygen cylinders, diving suits, and frog legs.
The difference between technique and training
For snorkeling you don’t need any special techniques or training to do it because this activity is only done on the surface of the water. Unlike scuba diving you need to do special training to master breathing techniques or how to regulate oxygen while underwater.
One of the best diving spots in Bali is in Tulamben. Tulamben is the best place to dive in Bali with crystal clear waters and incredible underwater beauty. If you dive in Tulamben you can see and enjoy a wide variety of coral reefs and other marine life.
