Today in Canada, we decided to cancel a dive due to some only having wet suits, our biggest safety concern was hypothermia. Have you ever noticed yourself start shivering, or feeling cold while Scuba Diving even in warm tropical waters? The water that we dive in is almost always at a lesser temperature than that of our bodies; and water conducts/draws away heat from a divers body almost 25 times more efficiently than air, which is why , even after a short dive in seemly mild ...water temperatures, it is possible to get mild hypothermia. Take for example a boiled egg that has just been boiled, and place one in a bowl of cool water, and another left on the counter to cool down for the same period of time. You will instantly notice that the egg immersed in water will have cooled down much quicker than the one left on the counter. This is the same effect that water has on our bodies while Scuba diving. Hypothermia is the condition in which the bodies temperature drops below that required for normal metabolism and body functions. When the body is exposed to cold, and it cannot replenish the heat being lost from the core body temperature through internal mechanisms, hypothermia is said to set in. Stage 1 Hypothermia: when the body temperature drops by 12 C (1.83.6 F) below normal temperature (down to 3537 C or 9598.6 F). Mild to strong shivering occurs. The person is unable to perform complex tasks, extremities such as hands become numb, and breathing becomes quick and shallow. Stage 2 Hypothermia: Body temperature drops by 24 C (3.87.6 F) below normal temperature (3335 C or 9194.8 F). Shivering becomes more violent, and a person becomes disoriented or un-coordinated. The body becomes pale, lips, ear, toes fingers become blue as the body diverts blood to the vital organs. Stage 3 Hypothermia: Body temperature drops below approximately 32 C (89.6 F). the bodies metabolic processes shut down, as organs begin to fail. The people is unable to co-ordinate or speak, and organ failure eventually leads to cardiac arrest and death. #safetyfirst #funsecond #canadadiving #bottomtimedivetours

Do you like dressing up for Halloween? Love the ocean? You’ve come to the right place.

If you find yourself paired with a diver who thinks they’re too special to do a buddy check, remind them it’s much easier to fix a small problem above water than dealing with a big problem underwater.

Being able to descend and ascend slowly and safely, while maintaining good positioning, is something that new divers can struggle with, and should be practiced just like any other skill.

If you want to escape the winter and even get CERTIFIED give us a call!!
