The Zodiac bobs gently on the ocean as the four drivers help each other with scuba gear. We joke and laugh casually as we struggle in the small boat, but there is a restlessness in the air because we want to be on our way. Finally, everyone is ready, and we split into two pairs, I steal a last glance over the blue ocean. I hear the waves slap gently against the boat, the mournful cry of seagull, and a steady murmur from the crowded beach a mile away. With three splashes my friends jump in. I follow. There is a splash and then silence. The water presses in on me and all I can hear is the sound of my regulator as I take my first breath. All I see is blue water, yellow light, and endless space. It feel as if we are suspended in time while the world rushes on. Then my buddy taps me on the shoulder and we begin a tour of a hidden world.
