5 Reasons to Become a Certified Scuba Diver

Edwin Shoffner serves as the president of Mattress by Appointment and Mattress Wholesale. He brings three decades of experience in mattress retailing to his companies. Beyond his businesses, Edwin Shoffner is dedicated to underwater exploration as a certified scuba diver, advanced open water diver, and rescue diver.

Ocean diving provides a myriad of new experiences, either as a hobby or even a profession. Here are some of them.

-Enter a new world: The average depth of the ocean is more than 12,000 feet, which means there's a ton to explore

-Get rid of gravity: Scuba diving grants you the ability to simply move through a special space without either floating or sinking.

-Try Underwater photography: The ocean is full of highly photogenic scenery, from colorful fish to dramatic underwater landscapes. Thanks to the latest technology, taking photos beneath the waves has never been easier.

-Learn the hand signals: Scuba divers communicate underwater using hand signals. Learning the signals is rewarding in itself, but you'd be surprised how often they can come in handy on land, too.

-Find peace and quiet: Scuba diving allows you to almost completely disconnect from the above-water world. Once in the ocean, you'll experience a level of quiet found nowhere else on Earth.
