    Looking to shore dive Cornwall in Dec.

    Hope you are not going to be disappointed. Dived Puget Sound and all the way to Haida Gwaii couple of years back and nothing compares in the UK. Everything in the cold water in Canada was on steroids in comparison to UK

    Trip Report Trip Report - Komodo & Padang Bai Oct 2023

    Just finished a couple of days in Padang Bai. We dove with Gecko Dive on the first day . Did Jepun which was freezing cold at 18 degrees with little to see apart from 2 sea horses. That the water was so cold came as a surprise in November especially as it was already at 21/22 last week. No...

    What a shame. Used to be one of my favourite early morning dives watching them filing out of the wreck.

    Hi, are the bumphead parrot fish still in the wreck of the Liberty. I have seen some reports that they are all gone after the pandemic due to harpooning. Is this true?

    ILIKE vs Indo Aggressor (Triton Bay - Forgotten Islands)

    We did the forgotten island tour from Saumlaki to Alor in April 2018 on Ambai. Probably not the best time as the weather can be still unreliable and very rough. We had to sit a storm out for 2 days. The diving was absolutely amazing. The most pristine reefs I have ever seen . Lots of fish ...

    Ambai vs Aggressor vs KLM Mari - Raja Ampat
