Here's my video to show you how to manage all 3 underwater caves with only 1 bubble used on Chapter 3:
The timing is short for the second cave.If you die you can reload your last checkpoint and retry just after without voiding the cheevo :)

Happy hunting !
While it says underwater cave, I believe this trophy relates to the three underwater segments you go through once you've cleared the infinite loop hall in the first part of the ruins. For the first and third underwater segments, you can make it through without using an air bubble at all. As for the second, that one is a bit trickier. Precision, in understanding how tight you need to take your corners and curves to keep a short path, is key. Once you submerge, you need to start diving and get under the door frame. Start proceeding a bit to the left and up the stairs.
The point of deviation here comes from the stairs. You CAN chance it and get the bubble at the end on the right of the stairs, or you can get the left bubble partway up the stairs. Either way, once you've got that one bubble, you're not allowed to get another. Proceed through and breach the surface once more, then run through dispersing the shades and diving to the third segment.
Once you breach the surface past the third water segment, the trophy should pop within a few seconds.
* Do note: if you die in the process, it still counts the air bubble as being used. Perhaps try restarting to the last checkpoint or wait until you complete the game to load the chapter specifically for that trophy.
Near the start of Chapter 3 (after endless maze section), you will come across three underwater sections that need to be completed using only one bubble of air. The first and third sections are easy to do with no bubbles. The middle section can be made, just, using one bubble that is at the top of a flight of stairs. Once you know this section and know exactly where to go, you should be able to make it. If you run out of air and die, you will have to start the Chapter over again.
Stage 3: Bargaining
You will get to a part where you will see a stone statue of a guy sitting in a chair. Walk to the back of this area, and you will see a fountain that you can dive down in. This is where this trophy begins. You will go through three different underwater areas before you can obtain this trophy. Go through the first underwater area but don't grab any of the air bubbles. Getting an air bubble about halfway through the second area is mandatory, as the area is too long to go without one. You will make it out of the second area with just seconds left of air. In the third area, avoid air bubbles. Once you get out of the third area, you will obtain this trophy while standing by the big tree.
Note: If you drown at any point, then you have to restart the Checkpoint else the trophy won't pop and the chapter will have to be redone from scratch. Credit to Cassylvania for this info.
