Sunshine Aquatic Centre
📍 Sri Lanka | 🗓 Diving Season | 📅 10.12.2012 — 21.12.2012
We came to Bentota by tuk-tuk from Wadduwa. Be prepared when negotiating prices through your driver, the price will double. But I really wanted to dive (diving). And for $130, we agreed on one dive and one snorkeler (wife). Then we found out that they charge 100 euros for just one snorkel. We swam to the center and ..... waited, waited and waited until the Hindus rolled up on jet skis. Why did they wait, because one very large Indian woman decided to become a diver too and she was probably warming up. Well, okay, finally we jumped on the boat and, in the full sense of the word, flew on the waves. It turns out that getting out of the river into the ocean is not such a simple task. Arriving at the specified point, the guide boys scratched the turnip and said that there was zero visibility, we were going to another place. And then I realized how lucky we were, we would have gotten wet quickly and back, and that's how they had to work off the money (remember, we had a snorkel for 100 euros with us). And we rode the waves to the island, where we began to learn the basics of Indian diving, and we got on solid ground and went to explore the island (such an unplanned excursion). Forty minutes later, the news came that we will see each other somewhere (in the sense that there is something to see). What can I tell you ... if at arm's length I saw something - that's good, but that's how I fought against the current. What did the snorkeler see? It still remains a mystery to me. Only all the way back, he told the guides that he had not seen anything and would not pay 100 euros. My wife and I had an exciting 2 hours on the water ride and if it wasn't for the wait at first, my rating would have been excellent. How is it? :-)))
