My husband is a scuba enthusiast and now that we live in thailand it's the ideal opportunity for him to indulge himself - however it's a problem that we can't share this together as i can't scuba.
when we went on the great barrier reef I snorkelled wearing the BCD as I couldn't swim very well at the time.
I can now swim much better but am not confident as i should be in the water. the other day I had a 1 hour practise with scuba equipment in a swimming pool and found it to be relatively simple but I can't imagine being in the ocean like that but much deeper.
I want to do the PADI course but am worried about panicking once I'm out there - anyone else know the same? should I go ahead?
