Scuba Diving in Bangladesh

What is Scuba Diving?
Scuba diving is primarily executed for the attraction of the unreachable and mysterious undersea world. It is one area of nature that mankind has not been able to fully control, we simply are not able to breathe underwater. Hence, scuba diving gives us an opportunity to be in that underwater world, even if it is just for a limited amount of time.
Of course, the underwater world is beautiful as well, with many people opting for scuba diving in Asia or scuba diving in the Red Sea or the Great Barrier Reef, said to be some of the world’s best scuba diving locations. The different colours and marine wildlife are so impressive in all these locations that people find themselves returning over and over again.
