Read Books about Scuba Diving
There are some really good books out there about diving and divers. I’ve read many of them and haven’t been disappointed yet.
I’ve put together a list of the best scuba diving books.
Plan Your Next Diving Trip
Just because you can’t now doesn’t mean you can’t plan the whole thing out. Part of the fun is in the planning anyway.
Take the time to plan your absolute dream diving trip and if you’re able at the moment, start saving for it.
Listen to Podcasts about Scuba Diving
Podcasts are a great alternative to watching shows and movies. And, while I’ll always prefer reading if you don’t or you need a non-reading activity, then podcasts are great.
There are several great scuba diving podcasts.
Improve Your Scuba Skills
Have a pool? You can still practice skills! If you don’t, you can still watch how-to videos, practice your breathing using my anxiety tips, and more.

Are you like me and have thousands of photos unedited? Take the time to edit all the photos and videos you’ve been meaning to get around to.

Learn about the Connection Between Your Astrological Sign and Diving
Always wondered how your sign plays into your diving? No. Well, now you can.
Here’s mine: Virgo’s attention to detail and hardworking nature makes them great dive buddies and dive professionals. Their kind heart and perfectionist tendencies may cause them to spend too much time helping others, neglecting their own self-care. If you have a Virgo dive buddy, make sure they stay hydrated and have a little snack between dives.
Honestly, it couldn’t be more on point.

While I wish there were more, there are a decent amount of scuba diving movies and documentaries out there.
Some are fantastic, some are okay, and some are just outright laughable (I’m looking at you 47 Meters Down) but here’s my full list.
