| Yacht Voyage Round Greece |
Those, who are travelling around Greece for the first time feel not only mental and physical comfort, but also the true delight with the beauties of the nature and monuments of ancient civilization which are striking one's imagination.
It's generally known that Greeks are living in a museum under an open sky and "sell" rather skilfully history of the richest ancient culture through tourism. But it is surprisingly cheerful and hospitable museum. Me and my friends experienced this during our tour on a sailing yacht by the Aegean Sea. We were novices at this type of the rest and that's why chartered a yacht with a skipper from a company for a week. |

| Personal Watercrafts - the Way to Joyous Jet Skiing |
Exremals, if you are not satisfied with sharp feelings from the trips overland and you desire to try something new on the water, buy a personal watercraft and have fun.
Do you know, that speed on the water is felt quite different than on the land or in the air? Even 50 km/h is quite a lot on the water. And it's needless to talk about 100 km/h or 120 km/h. Progress is not standing on one place. You can experience unforgettable feelings now, paying a relatively small amount of money. 30-40 years ago this was accessible to the military sailors and water racers only. A personal watercraft was invented for you.

| The "Catch and Release" Principle |
We hear the words "catch and release" more frequent lately. This word combination is met almost on every page in the prints devoted to a fishing subject. It comes to the funny things. It was in a magazine, exceptionally advertising publication, illustrated richly with the pictures of fishermen near the mountains of the caught fish, and here you come across this precious formula.
The "catch and release" is an essential sign of the good form, it's a synonym of the "civilized" fishing, an ideal which all of us should strive for as hard as we can. Everybody catches fish this way in the United States already. Some countries are still far away from this.
But is the "catch and release" method as good as it may seem at first? |

| Scuba Diving - Look Closer at the Sea Bottom |
We used to see the bottom of the sea only on a TV screen, where Jacques-Yves Cousteau was swimming and making comments of what he saw and touched. We were looking through the small window trying to scrutinize all the beauty of the underwater world. We guessed there were such places in seas-oceans which they did not show us yet. Then the word "diving" entered into our life. This is a type of rest for everybody than just for chosen.
Everyone to the bottom! Dive-movement is widened rapidly. Dive-centeres are growing as mushrooms. Both experienced divers and beginners are using their services. One thing is important for beginners at first - to submerge for ten meters at least once and then to boast at home saying, I dived with aqualung. They don't know yet that in a short period of time some not clear melancholy will call them under water again. |

| Fun on the Water |
Throughout the centuries, human beings have loved the water. Water has fed us, cleaned us, quenched our thirst, and given us a convenient highway since long before there were real highways. People built most of major cities near rivers, lakes, seas, oceans. People compose poetry and songs about the ocean, write stories about adventuring on mighty rivers while floating on nothing but tiny rafts, and build expensive waterfront properties so they can live next to water. People have dedeloped thousands of ways to travel, play, and live off-land. Following are just a few ways people created to experience the thrill and joy of being out on the open water.
