Where can I find semi sub and snorkel package in the Nassau, Bahamas area?

I am going to the Bahamas (Nassau) on Friday with a group of friends. But I can't find a Sea World Explorer Semi Sub that also does an optional snorkeling in the Nassau area. Do they not do that? Or can some tell me where I can find that type of ship (Boat with a glass bottom ) that has that option and not too expensive - under $100 for each person.






Answer :
Try Stuart Coves snorkeling and subs...


Check the link and you can find prices and schedules for the snorkeling and the semi-subs.

I live in Nassau and that is the only place I know that do both.


Hope this helped and Have fun!

Mythical creatures can be real?

don't you find it weird almost every culture had every mythical creature looking almost exactly like but they never had any connection back than like in medieval ages they didn't even know what china was but they have such similar mythical creatures how can some be fake also i forgot which famous sea explorer around the 1700s stated in his studies he saw a mermaid also another one said like a loch ness type monster in america maybe the writing is a lil bit of proof than seeing it.

For those who say if you don't see it , it cant be real the question is you never saw god in person and don't say you cant question god it doesn't matter.

Basically mythical creatures have so much facts its just there bodies were hidden so deeply you can't find them.






Answer :

You're crazy, there is no possible way any mythical creature could have evolved to be as we have see them. And so what? Some guy in the 1700's saw what he thinks was a mermaid? It could have been a manatee or a dugong or another animal of the sort. And may I remind you the 1700's wasn't exactly and age with too many smart people.

The simplest answer is dinosaur bones. The ancients who found these bones mistook them for animals that only died a few weeks ago. For example, what would you think if you found the bones of a giant creature that had a skull like a crocodiles, claws like a lion and a tale like a snake? And you had no former knowledge of dinosaurs what so ever. Your easiest conclusion would be a...dragon.

It's like one of the other answers said, some time ago the Greeks fond the bones of a dinosaur with a beak, so they created the griffin. People back in the day were kind of stupid, they made up a bunch of creatures just so they could explain everyday phenomenon.






Answer :

I understand what you are saying. It is like at the bottom depths of the ocean what creatures lie. We have know way of knowing because we are not technologically advanced that we can explore. Like when a hurricane washed up to shore all of those weird creatures. You just never know what is out there. We are still finding new creatures and evidence of strange creatures that had never been documented. Either way you look at it whether God creates or Evolution you have to ask why would either stop now. So what could be a new species today could easily be a mythological creature in the far future. You never know!






Answer :

I've seen a few weird things in my time, enough to know to keep my mind open about what exists and what doesn't. I just don't think it all exists in this dimension. Most of the stuff I've seen existed in a higher dimension, where angels exist.






Answer :

There was a program on the History Channel that stated most mythical creatures were ancient peoples trying to make sense of dinosaur bones that had been dislodged through erosion, earthquakes, etc.
The legend of the Griffin was told to Europeans by Chinese traders who had found the skeletal remains of a dinosaur that had a beak. The area around Greece has a lot of earthquake activity and a lot of prehistoric bones were found; the legends of the Titans, etc were their interprtations of the huge fossilized bones they found.






Answer :
I've always thought the same thing too, especially about Dragons.

This is a pretty informative yet cool website that will tell you all about dragons throughout history and their lore. Along with some very exciting artwork.







Answer :

This is indeed true.
The vampire is one of the best examples- ranging from the
Vroukolakas of Greece to the Chupacabra of South America. I don't agree that mythological creatures must be FACT, based on this observation but it certainly is interesting.

Do I have to learn to swim to go scuba diving?

Since I will already be underneath the water, would it make a difference to know how to swim on top of the water?

A challenge I made for myself this year-2009 is to learn something new. I'm terrified of swimming.I had a horrid experience when I was 13 years old at school in the P.E.(physical education) swimming class-I almost drowned. Nevertheless, I always wanted to learn to scuba dive(watching Jacques Creadeau(?) TV shows in the 60's(he was a sea explorer))

I cannot drown wearing the scuba diving (breathing)apparatus gear, right?

this sounds like a really stupid question,but i really need to know.






Answer :
I am sorry, but I have never read a more stupid question. What do you want then to do, lower you into the water on a sling?






Answer :
You'll need swimming basics and be able to tread water Vernal and yes you can drown scuba diving. You can drown in a bathtub too. It's usually a leading cause of death amongst divers for some reason.
You will need to be able to tread water for 10 minutes and swim 200 meters using any stroke you'd like or even a combination of strokes. Alternatively, you can do a mask and snorkel swim, but it's longer at 300 meters. A bonus is if you're comfortable in the water, that always helps.
Honestly, right now, I don't think scuba is for you. Maybe when you've gained some swimming skills and confidence.





Answer :
Well im glad to hear of your new goal, and it is a great one! Scuba Diving is one of the most fun things you will ever do.

Ok, so, YES you can drown while scuba diving. But you will be trained on how to take care of any problems you may encounter also there will be a guide there at all times to help you out.

Your guide will teach you how to swim underwater when you take your class in a pool before you go into the ocean. I have seen people who did not know how to swim go scuba diving before, so YOU CAN DO IT!





Answer :
Vernal, if I were you, I would adjust my 2009 resolution in a different direction. Your resolution to learn something new this year should be scaled back from scuba diving to just simply learning how to swim and learning to be comfortable in water. Once an instructor sees how uncomfortable you are in the water, especially if you frequently verge on panic, they will drop you like a hot potato, hopefully keeping any deposit or tuition money you have already given them. In terms of learning something new, I'm also thinking getting your GED would be a good idea.

People die doing scuba, all the time. In my little neck of the woods (the Florida Keys), 10-20 scuba divers die each and every year.

Every scuba certification agency requires their instructors to administer a swim test to ALL prospective students. Because the certification agencies are basically business's founded on the principle of making money and profit (PADI especially), this swim test is fairly easy and difficult to fail. PADI, the largest certification agency in the world ('largest' does not equal 'best') requires students to either swim 200 yards without assist (fins), or 300 yards with fins, and also to float/tread water for a minimum of 10 minutes. Other agencies will have similar or stricter requirements.

Your question did not make clear whether you want to actually become a certified scuba diver. You simply stated that you wanted to 'learn' diving. Another option, if all you want to do is go diving is to take what is called a 'resort course', AKA 'scuba in a day'. With this option, you simply learn the absolute basics you need to know in order to keep from killing yourself on a dive, then you partake in an instructor-escorted dive. It is a good way to sample whether diving is for you or not. Please forewarn the instructor about your uncomfortableness in the water, and let them decide whether or not to accept you.

What role of the past is similar to that of a scientist in today's society?

What is the role of the scientist (compared to other modern day roles that carry direct analogies to the past)?
...such as, doctors and nurses were like the village high priestesses way back then.

Material capitalists are like the Catholic Church in that they have something society values and cedes power to...football players are like saints adding value to an organization of material capitalists based on their unique, individual performance...

Or how about the uniform attire Mecca attendees wear as part of the many rituals they adhere to while listening to holified spoken words through speaker phones?

While going to a large community gathering around hot air balloons and fireworks, I noticed that the rise of attention and complete adherence to the pledge of allegiance blown through the speakerphone along with everyone dressed uniformly like their favorite TV or music icon, sponsored by many different companies competing and marketing their value was no different than the ceremonies one witnesses at Mecca with competing factions--albeit discreetly--recruiting those who would value their (sometimes extreme) interpretation of the Koran...or in the Western contemporary case, companies compete over your value of the dollar.

Are scientists responsible for unlocking new realities by identifying recurring, observable patterns?

Since innovative technology is followed by capitalists, are scientists the modern day high-seas explorers sponsored by ambitious valued peoples seeking new grounds for their 'empire' in the old world to take advantage of by proxy?

Protestants abiding by Catholic rule didn't see the moral difference between the Word and the words man had preached...eventually, the differences were outlined, as it should be identified in today's society.

The idol worship of the almighty dollar and what it can gain you if you live among others who worship your ideas...

...whether one joins a powerful security force--America's first soldiers didn't volunteer for free since they benefited from the reward of acres of land--is comparable to those who die for a none material reward pushed by many religions highlighted 'today' mostly by Muslim extremism.

If you look deeper, time is not money, money is time. Time spent (and the material gains the passage of time allows) is something you can not gain back; that is why it is nice to pay those to spend their time doing things that would otherwise bring down your quality of life (since you'd end up working a farm instead of eating the food you buy out the grocery store).






Answer :
Comparing the American pledge of allegiance respect to what is done by Muslims in Mecca is absurd. You are comparing respect given to the fallen of a nation that freed most of world with the superstitious mandatory worship of idols like that idiotic worship of a meteor by a religion that was backward in the 14th century. Scientists that don't recognize obvious realities aren't at all useful in the real world.
