Best Answer

Most people burn calories because of the body's attempt to maintain its temperature while Scuba diving. Rescue divers burn additional calories while doing more strenuous movement underwater. You can burn a great deal of calories if you had to swim against a strong current or in a medium current for a long time. Estimates show that an average person burns 600-1000 calories per hour while diving.
