You could visit St Helena island in the south atlantic and take a scuba course for £250.
I would however recommend the 'freediving' route. I prefer it above scuba mainly because you can dive for longer than you can with scuba. You have to terminate your scuba when your tank is running low on pressure. You are restricted to certain depts, 18m being the limit for a PADI open water ticket.
With freediving you can carry on diving till you get too cold, however long that is, and get back in the water as soon as you have warmed up. So you don't have to terminate a dive when something interesting comes along. With practice and experience you can explore all depths where sunlight reach, with ease. You are free and unrestricted. When you learn to relax, time becomes inconsequential.
