Hi all - I dived the HMAS Brisbane in November and have written up a trip report here. Hope you enjoy!

Thanks for all the comments. I'm now living in Sydney so plenty new wrecks to explore out here!

Hi all - any recommendations for good books on identifying sea life in Australian waters? Ideally an ebook but paper also ok.

We’re looking at a Yongala trip for a long weekend in January. Given we’re going all that way I’m keen to do more than just one day of diving. Should we do four dives on the Yongala or are there other sites around there worth visiting?

Hey all - I spent a few days diving in Caye Caulker earlier this year and wrote about the trip here: Scuba Diving in Caye Caulker, Belize - Nothing but Scuba Cheers Ross

This place is definitely worth a visit. They have onsite accommodation, a dedicate shore diving spot and their own boat.

Thanks all - great tips!

Hey all Has anyone been on the indo aggressor and have positive/negative reviews? Likewise any experience of the Komodo Deep South itinerary in December? Thanks

My partner and I recently moved (back) to Sydney and want to dive more regularly now we're living nearer warmer waters. We're both drysuit certified though my partner struggles a bit with the cold water and drysuit faff - so warmer water is generally preferred. We have a trip up to the...

Hey all - I took a trip to dive Scapa Flow back in 2021 with all of seven drysuit dives under my belt. At the time I wasn't sure diving there was even possible with such little experience but was grateful to the many internet sources that convinced me otherwise. I've now written about my...

Thanks both. I’m currently in Argentina as part of a longer trip. I fly home from São Paulo mid June so will spend the last few weeks in Brazil. I’ll likely travel into Brazil at Iguazu then leave from São Paulo. Everything else in between can be flexible. I spoke to a dive shop in Recife and...

Hi all - I’ll be in Brazil from the end of this month for about 2-3 weeks. We’re still to work out our itinerary but I’m keen to try and fit in a few dives. Where are the best spots to dive in Brazil?

Hi all - after some helpful advice from everyone in this thread, we dived in a couple of cenotes with Under the Jungle at the end of January. It was an awesome day and I've written up a trip report here for anyone interested. Cheers Ross

Yea we’ve tried soaking it in water but no luck. The button moves ok but it doesn’t do anything upon pressing.

I bought two Geo 4s for me and my partner three years ago. Both have been great though two weeks ago my partner’s started playing up and the ‘select’ button doesn’t work. It’s only had around 30 dives on it so it’s a little annoying. My only other frustration is that the battery needs replaced...

Hi all - I recently spent a few days diving in Cozumel as part of a bigger backpacking trip in Central America. My trip report is here. More reports to come later on our other dive spots in Central America! Let me know if you have any thoughts, feedback or questions. Cheers Ross

Thanks all, that’s really helpful. Perhaps sounds like I’m being overly cautious. Under the Jungle look like a high quality shop so I’ll drop them an email.

I'm going to be in Mexico in January. We're spending some time in Cozumel and Tulum and I'm thinking about a few dives in the cenotes. Me and my partner are both relatively inexperienced in the grand scheme of things, ~50-60 dives each, though in a reasonably large variety of conditions (eg...

Hi - I’m planning a trip to Central America next year. I’ll probably spend 6-8 weeks travelling from Mexico to Panama checking out various dive spots along the way. I like wrecks. Particularly those with an interesting story / history. Are there any must-dive wrecks off the CA coast (east or...

If you’re travelling as far north as the Ligurian coast, I’d definitely recommend Portofino Divers. The only other spot we’ve dived so far is in Ischia. Again worth a visit if you’re down there. I imagine you can dive the Gulf of Naples with shops from the Amalfi coast though I can’t recommend...
