Day 4 - Scuba Diving

This day had been marked for Scuba diving at the Sea Shell, by Scubalov.in. So we arrived at the site, packed with energy, only to be disappointed by the choppy sea. We went back to our resorts, keeping our fingers crossed. By 11, the dive had started again. So we went back, refreshed and rejuvenated.
At the Sea Shell, we changed into the Scuba gear and were trained for around 15 minutes. Then we were taken to the dive site by an instructor. My instructor was Xavier, a very jolly and mild-mannered person. The dive was definitely an experience worth having. I saw a number of vividly colored parrot fish, a few clown fish in a sea anemone, zebra fish, sea urchins and many others. However, because of the bad weather in the morning, the sea water was very muddy and the visibility wasn't great. However, it wasn't very bad either. I could still see and enjoy a lot of marine life. We were helped back to the shore by our instructors and given a dvd of pictures and videos from underwater.

After this, we went to Radhanagar beach. This beach was undoubtedly the highlight of our trip. It was a free and untimed wave pool! The waves coming towards the shore were mild, sometimes strong, and fun to abreast. We spent the rest of the day on this beach, jumping and floating with the waves.
