Helmet Diving in Boracay

One of the activities i did with my loved ones in Boracay was Helmet Diving. Obviously, the youngest, Noli, was too youthful to do this, so he had to delay on the vessel with Helen and Mary, while Borj,  Mae, Tito Lance, Mother Lily and Father Abraham put on the 25-pound headgear, absorbed themselves in the water, went on the seabed, and performed with and fed different vibrant sea creatures.  This amazing experience was of course recorded on camera - photographs and video!

Among the 7 of us, I was the only one who had difficulties with my ears during the dive.  The helmet diving experts educated us three techniques how to avoid this though - 1) Swallow ; 2) Transfer your jaw sideways; 3) hold your nose while mouth closed.  I was effective with the third strategy but I had to do several attempts while underwater.


You should definitely try Helmet diving in Boracay! Should you be in Boracay and you get the opportunity to do it, don't think twice, go for it.  After all, daily normal life is too shorter to neglect out on elements like that :)
