Noli, underwater garden

Five years ago i dived last time.
We were a group of friends joined by the passion of diving but when Covid arrived, the world stopped and diving was prohibited.

Three months ago, I met one of these friends and we decided to start again diving so on Sunday we went in Noli.
Noli is a small village in Liguria, a region on the north of Italy.

Sea was calm and it was cloudy. Diving center is under an hotel and stan staying on the beach, we can see a wonderful house that is in front of the sea.

Diving requires preparation. You may study what happens when you go underwater, you may know how to arrive from deep to the surface and you have to prepare all stuffs you may need during the diving.
For this reason I prepared my backpack tapping on the checklist on Friday night so I was ready.
For the same reason Bulla, which is my beautiful dog, looked us so carefully ☺️

After one hour we were ready.
Equipment was on the beach and we made a little beefing.
We went on -20meters, then we came back till -12meters looking fishes and rock wall.
At the end just one stop for security reason at -5meters.

When you enter or exit from the water, your weight is higher than usual. You have the tank (yesterday I took a 18 liters) which is extremely heavy, the BSD which is the jacket that holds you underwater and obviously a belt with 10kg. But finally the time arrived.
After five years!!

Unfortunately I haven’t any photography of underwater ‘s live.
My next purchases will be a GoPro but not for this post :-)

During this dive we went also at the Nemo’s Garden, an Italian project where plants are cultivated in domes placed at -10meters.
I leave you a video in which the project is explained from the creators.
I hope you’ll enjoy it!!
