Aquatic sports – sports involving playing in or upon the water – take various forms. The main activities include swimming, synchronized swimming, diving and water polo. 
By swimming we mean the sport in which players perform the act of moving through the water by using the arms, legs, and body in motion. Swimming is an integral part of almost all water-based activities. 
Closely related to swimming is synchronized swimming where the players perform beautiful maneuvers to music and diving. 
Water polo, on the other hand, is a game where two opposing teams play against each other, attempting to score points by throwing a buoyant ball into the opponent’s goal.
Underwater activities are less varied, the most popular of which are snorkeling and scuba diving. Snorkeling involves swimming face down just below the water surface while breathing through a slender plastic tube called a snorkel. Scuba divers, on the other hand, carry a big tank of air that allows them to breathe while deep underwater.
Aquatic sports have long been acknowledged as excellent ways to take physical exercise. Furthermore, practising them is known to produce both psychological and physical benefits which help to improve mood states and reduce the risk of many serious diseases.
