Diving vacation

Fascinating underwater world, colorful fish, coral reefs, exoticism: diving is an experience that fascinates more and more people around the world. The first divers ventured into the seabed several thousand years ago. Initially it was mainly a search for food, but diving has since developed into a popular sport. More than one million Germans are now said to pursue this hobby. With diving goggles, fins and a wetsuit alone, scuba divers can reach depths of up to 40 meters below sea level. If you want to go deeper, you usually need technical aids such as an oxygen tank. With the right equipment, diving becomes an unforgettable, colorful nature and vacation experience.
