I finished my last two open water dives this last weekend, completed all the exercises and passed my final exam - I am now a certified diver!!! I'm positively beaming because I was so frightened, but I did it.
The last two dives were done on the East coast of UAE in Khorfakkan. We dove to 18 meters/59 feet. The water was much warmer and I saw and touched soft pink coral at Martini Rock. On our second dive at Shark Island I saw my first ever real live seahorse and discovered feather starfish, which when resting looks like a beautiful pile of bird feathers.
I'm feeling much more comfortable underwater, comfortable enough that I actually got separated from my party down deep, but there was no panic and we were soon reunited. I loved it and will definitely do it again, but I will wait until the water is a bit warmer.
