10 Ocean & Scuba Diving Quotes.

This post started like so many others – with keyword research. “Scuba diving quotes” is easy to rank for my keyword research program showed me, decent search volume too. Why not, I thought, who doesn’t like a good scuba diving quote.

I started to research suitable quotes and quickly realized: Most scuba diving quotes are full of puns, not wisdom. Nothing wrong with that, I like a good pun, but for World Ocean Day (which is today!) I wanted something a bit more inspiring and longer-lasting than a chuckle. Or at least both.

So with that said, I filtered through the myriad of quotes, song lyrics, and poem lines out there, and put together my favorites for you. For inspiration, a laugh, or maybe both.

Scuba diving quotes for World Ocean Day

There’s nothing wrong with enjoying looking at the surface of the ocean itself, except that when you finally see what goes on underwater, you realize that you’ve been missing the whole point of the ocean. Staying on the surface all the time is like going to the circus and staring at the outside of the tent.

Dave Berry

But they didn’t know
I could breathe underwater

Rainer Maria Rilke

Don’t wait any longer. Dive in the ocean, Leave and let the sea be you.

Rumi

The cure for anything is salt water: sweat, tears or the sea.

In one drop of water are found all the secrets of all the oceans.

I must be a mermaid. I have no fear of depths and a great fear of shallow living.
