Job, adventure, or profitable hobby- akin to prospecting for say Gold or Uranium on a different scale.

Pearl diving typically does not require formal schooling, but divers often benefit from training in scuba diving and safety protocols. Many divers take specialized courses to learn about underwater techniques, marine life, and safety measures. Some regions may also offer certifications for commercial diving that can enhance job prospects. Overall, practical experience and physical fitness are crucial for success in pearl diving.

Pearl divers traditionally used a technique called free diving, where they hold their breath while diving underwater to collect pearls. They typically trained to increase their lung capacity and learn to remain underwater for extended periods. Some divers also used weighted belts to help them dive deeper and return to the surface quickly. In modern times, divers may use scuba gear to breathe underwater more easily and safely.

Free divers risk the danger of drowning while underwater, especially in areas requiring divers to descend to extreme depths. All pearl divers risk encountering dangers under the water, including sharks and other sea life. Many Australian pearl divers perished during storms that claimed the pearling boats while the divers were still on the bottom. Beyond environmental hazards, pearl divers also have to cope with the "bends," a condition caused when rapid decompression from quick surface ascent causes nitrogen bubbles to form in the bloodstream.

Dangers of pearl diving include drowning due to deep water blackout, decompression sickness, hypothermia, and dangerous creatures and environmental risks. Because of the deep distances that pearl divers go, deep water blackout is the cause of most pearl diving deaths.
