India’s first
underwater
festival took
place in Pune |
| |
|

Believe it
or not, Pune
hosted
India’s
first-ever
‘underwater
festival’.
Attempting
to make a
splash in a
land-locked
city, the
Pune
Underwater
Festival
hosted a
submarine
playground
(with fun
activities
and a photo
booth in a
6ft pool);
dive games
with
obstacles
and
hockey—all
under water.
There’s also
water polo;
photo
exhibits and
workshops on
diving,
swimming and
life saving.
If you’re
fretting
over your
swim
skills—fear
not! The
organisers
claim that
you only
need basic
swimming
skills to
participate—and
that safety
will not be
compromised.
Pune based
firm Finkick
Adventures
is
spearheading
the
initiative
and apart
from just
fun and
games, they
ensured that
the festival
created an
environment
for marine
enthusiasts
to learn and
spread the
word about
conservation
under the
sea. |
