Playing the game of chasing the bottom of the sea is an exciting experience when the footsteps of wanting to follow the school of guppies are caught by sand and water. At this time, the feeling of bare feet touching the sand is entirely different when you walk on the beach because of the floating and the fairy scenery around. In the end, the fish disappeared, leaving a sense of confusion for divers.

If the water pressure makes you uncomfortable, wave your instructor to take you to the surface. After a few moments of calm and balance, you will be able to continue the journey to conquer the ocean world. The interesting and unexpected scenes continue to follow until you are brought back to the original position because the time has run out of time without knowing it.
