I went diving for the first time yesterday in Cancun and found it to be kinda overwhelming. They threw me in a hotel pool for 30 minutes to learn basic procedures related to clearing my goggles and recovering my regulator and shit like that. Then we take a 20 minute boat ride out to the reef and at that point it all was a little overwhelming
Had to fall backwards into the water which freaked me out because it took me like 5 seconds to pop back up to the surface (probably shorter, but it felt longer). So that sucked
Then I had never breathed on a full tank (hotel pool tank was nearly empty) so each breath I took was much higher pressure and made it hard for me to get into the same rhythm as before
Then finally it was kinda choppy at the surface and felt weird going down with my ears popping and all this open space around me and shit.
I calmed down a lot once we got to the bottom and started looking at fish. Still they yanked me out early cause I went through my tank in 31 minutes while the rest of the crew continues to dive for another 15 minutes
Overall just typical bitch shit. Will definitely try it again and I’m sure it’ll be much better the second time. Learned a lot for only $100
