Divers struggle to determine the direction of sound under water. Did you know sound travels five times faster underwater than it does in air? This is because water is denser than air, so it is able to travel faster. Shouting does not transmit sound very well underwater because sound vibrations do not transfer from air to water very well. This means our divers have to communicate via hand signals when in our tanks!
