What
does B.O.B. mean?
B:O:B: stands for Breathing Observation Bubble.
Can anyone do it?
Just about. The minimum height is 1.55 metres (about 5 feet
4 inches), you should be reasonably healthy and know how to swim. We
have taken old age pensioners down BOB diving, though the maximum age
limit is 74.
Can
I wear my glasses or contact lenses?
We get asked this a lot. Of course, it is not possible to wear
glasses when scuba diving but B.O.Bs are different. Because your whole
head is protected within the bubble, you can wear
glasses or contact lenses without any problems at all. In fact,
if you need corrective lenses of any kind, then don´t forget to
bring them with you, so you do not miss any of the sea creatures that
you´ll meet.
Must I have some diving experience?
No, you don´t need any experience at all. B.O.B. diving is a fantastic
introduction to the world under the sea and many who try B.O.B. diving
go on to become qualified scuba divers.
I
am a qualified scuba diver. Do you think I´d enjoy B.O.B. diving?
Definately! The owners and instructors at Safari B.O.B. are all PADI
instructors with years of experience diving internationally and we still
get a kick out of our B.O.B.s.
