Scuba Diving Celebrities:
Leonardo DiCaprio: Even before filming “The Titanic” Leo had already obtained his Certification. Most of his diving relates to endeavors aimed at environmental protection. Quite the Role Model . . . at least underwater.
Kate Winslet: She also has her Scuba Diving Certification and has a love for diving that she says has allowed her to see the beauty of marine life up close and personal.
Tom Cruise: When not doing his own movie stunts or flying his own planes, he unwinds while Scuba Diving. If you may have seen, he is quite the Free Diver, as shown in the latest Mission Impossible movie where he held his breath for over 6 minutes . . . yes that was really him and it was real . . . a real 6+ minutes.
Katie Holmes: being married for a short time to Tom Cruise . . . understandably a diver.
Will Smith: He notes that he has dove in many various locations around the world.

Kate Hudson: she became a diver when needing to learn for the above-mentioned film “Fool’s Gold”.
Jessica Alba: is a PADI Advanced Open Water diver. If you have not seen the Movie “Into the Blue” I highly recommend it. She did that film with the late Paul Walker and Scott Caan.

Tom Selleck: need absolutely no introduction, but has been a diver since the early 80’s, Loves it.
Tom Hanks: he dives mostly for leisure and learned because of movie rolls, but a surprise to us, yes.
