Recreational dive sites include specific places that recreational
scuba divers go to enjoy the underwater environment. This includes publicly accessible recreational
diver training sites and
technical diving sites beyond the range generally accepted for
recreational diving. In this context all diving done for recreational purposes is included.
Professional diving tends to be done where the job is, and with the exception of the recreational diving service industry, does not generally occur at specific sites chosen for their easy access, pleasant conditions or interesting features.
