Who should come to an underwater festival?

The main idea behind this festival is of inclusion, as it caters to both swimmers and non-swimmers, including those with disabilities; proving the underwater world is a universal equaliser that doesn’t leave room for discrimination.

The second thought behind it is to spread awareness about our oceans and educate marine enthusiasts about the stunning ecosystem that has the potential to thrive if we take positive steps towards its conservation.

If you plan to go for the festival, you’ll need this to catch all the fun and action SBE Underwater GoPro Sports Camera (Rs 1,599)
