Wreck Diving
This is a specific type of scuba diving that requires added skill and provides a fulfilling, thrilling experience for adventure seekers. It’s become so popular among diving enthusiasts that retired ships have purposely been submerged to add to shipwrecks that can easily be accessed by beginners.
