diving equipment

Diving equipment consists of gear that allows a person to breathe and stay safe underwater. It typically includes a mask to see clearly, fins to swim efficiently, and a wetsuit or drysuit to maintain body temperature. The most important item is a tank of compressed air connected to a regulator, which delivers breathable air underwater. Additional gear includes a buoyancy control device (BCD) to manage depth, gauges to monitor air supply and depth, and weights to counteract buoyancy. Proper equipment ensures safety, comfort, and the ability to explore underwater environments effectively.
