BML said the main aim of the initiative was to provide children with disabilities an opportunity to experience the ocean through scuba diving, which is proven to be both therapeutic and rehabilitative.  

“It was incredible to see the kids enjoy the wonders of a scuba dive and experience it for the first time,” said BML.
