It had been 3 days now, since I came to Perhentian Island. The previous 2 day, it was nothing special. Just courses after courses, to learn to dive in a confined water before we really have the chance to go for an open water dive.
What we really learn before this were all the basic, like how to control your breath in water, control your buoyancy, knowing all the part of diving gear, assembly and disassemble of the diving gear, and some soft skills and test. These are all very important thing to know, before we go for a real diving. Sicci is a very nice instructor of us, she gave a lot of patient in teaching us, and try to make our lesson as fun as possible.
Today, we finally finish the confined water dive part, and heading to the "Temple" for a 18m open water diving. This is the best spot for diving, as what Sicci told us. During the descending, it was not easy. We have to always keep on equalize our pressure by blowing air through our closed nose, and it have nothing to see around also. Anyhow, we manage to reach the bottom of the sea, where there is the hidden world of paradise, a totally isolated wonderland that only can found under water.
It was like those scene we saw in the Disney cartoon about the " Little Mermaid" and her kingdom. There are a lot of different kind of fish you can see around, with different colors as well. Not forgetting the wonderful coral, that became habitat for many of those fishes. We saw some yellowish fish in school of few hundred just in front our eyes, angel fish in blue color, huge Baracuda lying on the rock, Flowerhorn in blue color that bigger than a new born baby size, and many others aquatic living. Too bad we couldn't see the turtle, while other people on the same boat saw it at the other side. It was really an amazing experience, especially when we getting more used to the dive. Balancing the breath and buoyancy became more easy and naturally, so we can really enjoy all the thing surrounding.
It is awesome, and I looking forward for tomorrow last dive. I pretty sure it will be as much fun as today, and probably there will have the chances to see a turtle as well.
