Quick point re scuba diving. I only did a little bit, and it was amazing. But complicated and a bit scarey (I'm not enterprising..)!
Snorkelling was a wonderful alternative. OK, so you are looking at fish and stuff from above rather than next to you. But you dont need to do anything complicated- in fact, its even easier than swimming as you just float without even needing to lift your head. No training or complicated equipement needed, and not scarey- if you want to stop, you just lift up your head and start swimming.
It helped that I did this in a wonderful area for fish life- a coral reef.
