What Happens to Color Underwater and Why do Objects Look Bigger in Water -Beginner Scuba Diving Tips

"What happens to color underwater?" or "Why do objects look bigger in water?" Uncover the science behind these phenomena in this video for beginner scuba diving tips.
Water absorbs color and red is the first color that gets affected by this. This doesn’t mean that you won’t see a beautiful colorful reef on your dives, but it might be a bit less colorful than when you snorkel in shallow water or have seen on documentaries( as they use underwater lights).
Objects also appear larger and closer to you underwater. This has to do with light traveling through different mediums like water and air and vice versa. We call this refraction. For this reason, you might think that a fish is big during the dive, but in reality, it is a bit smaller.
