RE: Amazing Animals #27 The Flamboyant Cuttlefish
To detail just how unsuited I am for it, I went on my first dive last year and vomited multiple times into my regulator, entering the water almost made my seasickness worse, and i felt nauseous for the next 12 hours!
They are an inquisitive group of animals and you can definately tell that there is a thought process occuring when observing them, maybe if I can find the right tablets I may get to see them in the wild one day.
Ah interesting, so going under didn't stop the queasiness? Usually I'm fine once my head is under water.
It most definately did not! :D
I put it down to the fact I think I was too far gone by the time we reached the dive-site.
I've had dives like that :( My first couple of dives in Galápagos I was so seasick (despite having taken tablets) that I was throwing up until we got in the water. I was still fine once under, but the second we were up and bobbing, waiting for the boat, I got queasy and 2 mins back on board, did me in completely. It was a full day diving so yeah, not much fun. Even worse was that the visibility was awful and I missed a manta ray while clearing my mask 😑
