For scuba divers, the Sea of Cortez is a place they wish to call home. Scuba diving in the Sea of Cortez can be described as taking a dive into a massive aquarium. A deep but narrow body of water, the Sea of Cortez is full of underwater canyons that are home to plankton, which is a staple food for most any marine life, and thus a rich diversity of tropical fishes inhabits this part of the ocean

I love it. SCUBA diving is without a doubt my absolute favorite outdoor activity. I've never had a major issue but I took my training seriously and I pay attention when diving. I only dive with those of like minds as well. Jokers need not apply.

SCUBA (Self Contained Underwater Breathing Apparatus) diving is swimming underwater, or taking part in another activity, while using a scuba set.[1] By carrying a source of breathing gas (usually compressed air),[2] the scuba diver is able to stay underwater longer than with the simple breath-holding techniques used in snorkeling and free-diving, and is not hindered by air lines to a remote air source. The scuba diver typically swims underwater by using fins attached to the feet. However, some divers also move around with the assistance of a DPV (diver propulsion vehicle), commonly called a "scooter", or by using surface-tethered devices called sleds pulled by a boat.

This is one thing that I have never tried. I think that it would be a great experience. But I feel that it would be a little scarey. I have seen it on tv and it looks so relaxing, and beautiful.

The Sea of Cortez sounds like an awesome place. Sadly l don't foresee me ever getting to go there. I think it does seem very peaceful to do.

Sea of Cortez is good but my favorite place is off the Great Barrier Reef. The variety of fish and the various formations is amazing.
