We spent a few days in the small town of Taganga, Colombia. This is a top place to learn how to scuba dive in Colombia. So we signed up for a minicourse (we didn´t have 4 days to get PADI certified). It included an instructional video in English, a practice in calm shallow water and two dives that ranged from 30-40 ft under water. We took a boat to our first practice and dive spot. Luckily we had an English speaking instructor from Barcelona, Spain. He gave us great instructions and before we knew it we were going on our first dive seeing beautiful, colorful fish, coral, lobsters and more! We were both a little nervous at first but after getting the hang of it we were exploring under water. We came out to the beach for a quick lunch and then we boated to our second dive spot which was near the beaches of Tayrona National Park. We did this dive from the boat and saw even more gorgeous coral, eels, more lobsters and many many amazing fish. All in all, a great adventure and a wonderful exploration of the sea. We hope to get fully certified at a later date, but this was a great first taste of scuba diving!!!
