Safe Diving Practices

Safe diving practices involve several key principles to ensure diver safety. Always check your equipment thoroughly before diving, including tanks, regulators, and buoyancy devices. Dive with a buddy and establish communication signals. Always plan your dive, including depth and duration, and adhere to your limits. Gradually ascend to avoid decompression sickness, and perform safety stops if required. Stay aware of your surroundings and marine conditions, and respect wildlife. Lastly, maintain physical fitness and seek proper training, as understanding dive physiology is crucial for safe experiences underwater.
