13 Scuba Diving Vacations You Have To Take Before It's Too Late

If you can get over the feeling of breathing underwater - and take it from us, it isn't easy - scuba diving is an incredible way to explore the sprawling ecosystem that is the ocean blue. Specifically, coral reefs are usually the highlight of any dive.
Reefs serve two main functions: to protect our shorelines and serve as the habitat to more than 25 percent of all marine life. The loss of coral reefs would be devastating for the fish and plants that call these areas home. It would also represent a huge loss for future generations of humans who didn't get to experience these treasures for themselves.
