Scuba diving is also popular with many tourists because of its unique experiences. This is a professional form of coral diving with specialized equipment and oxygen tanks. With this form, tourists can see coral at different depths instead of just near the shore like other types of diving. This type of diving is more suitable for tourists who know how to swim.
In addition, visitors can choose to snorkel. This is the simplest form of diving, visitors only need to wear a life jacket, goggles, snorkel and face down in the water to see the colorful coral reefs. This type is suitable for children, the elderly and even those who do not know how to swim. However, this type is only suitable for diving near the shore, visitors may miss the beautiful coral reefs in the sea further away.

A wonderful feeling that only when you experience it yourself can you fully appreciate the uniqueness of this type of tourism.”
