Singapore is surrounded by great diving sites. Scuba Diving is amazing as it endows people the opportunities to explore the world under the water. The scuba divers are required to carry a self contained breathing set that will allow them to remain under water for a long time. Sometimes the diver swims underwater by attaching fins to his feet. The diver can even choose to move around with the aid of the diver propulsion vehicle. The transparent water along with the coral provides wonderful opportunities for scuba diving as well as snorkeling. The best part of the place is very easily accessible. There are many dangers attached to scuba diving. One must learn the essential norms and regulations before plunging into the water. Those norms and regulations could be learned through the diving centres in Singapore. There are many diving schools in Singapore, beginners can undertake courses leading to internationally recognised NAUI or PADI certification. Classes are held during the day or night, and often include a trip to a nearby island where you can practise your newly-acquired skills. With certification in hand, choose among the many spectacular diving sites along the east coast of Malaysia to discover and explore.

Rock Climbing
Rock climbing is a popular adventurous sport in Singapore that attracts both the locals and the foreign tourists. Rock climbing is a sport in which participants climb up or across natural rock formations or man-made rock walls. The goal is to reach the summit of a formation or the endpoint of a pre-defined route. Rock climbing is a physically and mentally demanding sport, one that often tests a climber's strength, endurance, agility, and balance along with his or her mental control. It requires climbers having proper climbing techniques and usage of specialized climbing equipment is crucial for the safe completion of routes. Many people think mistakenly that Rock Climbing is as dangerous as mountaineering. But the risks involved are actually minimal as a safety rope is attached to the Rock Climber at all times. The dearth of natural climbing sites in Singapore makes wall climbing the prevalent sport there. The Bukit Timah Nature Reserve is open to public for climbing but they don't allow inexperienced climbers.
