Scuba Diving

Scuba diving is a form of underwater diving and exploration in which a person uses a Self Contained Underwater Breathing Apparatus (SCUBA) to breathe while they are under the water.

Scuba diving may be performed for a number of reasons, both professional and recreational. Deep diving, cave diving, river bottom diving, and wreck diving are types of scuba diving many people do.
