Two years ago, I became a certified scuba diver. Since then, I've been scuba diving in Mexico and Panama, both of which were phenomenal experiences. I titled this blog post "bringing a little familiarity with me" because although I have never been diving in Thailand, diving is a passion of mine. Regardless of where I'm doing it, there are few places where I feel more at home than under meters upon meters of water, so by scuba diving I can kind of be at home while being away from home.
I am super excited about the prospect of diving in Thailand because I have heard nothing but amazing testimonies to how great the diving is. One thing about getting into diving is that you become part of the community of fellow divers who all love to share their experiences with one another. Richelieu Rock has come up numerous times as a favorite site, so I have added it as one of my must-sees while I'm in Thailand.
One of the most exciting parts about diving is the high likelihood of spotting a whale shark, which is the largest fish in the ocean. I have never seen one before, so I'm really hoping I will in Thailand. There are literally plenty of fish in the sea at this site. With so many different kinds of underwater life surrounding you, there's never a dull moment. There is also tons of coral reef to explore while you're down there.
Although this is an adventure that I have already experienced in some ways, no two diving experiences will ever be the same. I can't what kind of adventure this world renowned site can offer me.
