1. Whale Shark The largest fish on the planet is not only at the top of our list, it is also an absolute highlight for most divers. No wonder then that we get daily enquiries about when and where to find and dive with whale sharks. In Thailand there are spots where lucky divers can come...

One experience that remains etched in your memory forever is the sighting of manta rays. If you visit Nusa Penida and do diving, you will definitely get to see one of these (unless you are the rare unlucky ones). They are enormous but when you see them swimming in the ocean, they tend to glide...

Hello dive community, due to a last minute cancellation of a group of 5x guests, we have now some spaces available on our SOUTH Komodo/Rinca dive cruise starting on the 6th of January 2017. This will be a 6N/7D cruise that can also be booked half way, making it a classic 3N/4D trip. We will...

Still haven't decided for my 2017 spring (April) trip. I have limited time (10days) and want to combine diving with some nice southern hemisphere stargazing - latter is probably going to happen in a SA farm. Ponta do Ouro seems to be easy to access via Durban, has anyone dived there? How is...

Here's a(nother!) short video from Palau. I just love that place, especially when the sun is shining all week, like this time. All filmed on a hacked Panasonic GH2, in a 10 Bar housing. Cheers, Matt

My wife and I are headed to the BI in a couple weeks and plan on doing the manta dive. I've been watching the manta count on BI Divers page and saw today's post at 0. How often does this happen? Have you ever been skunked on this dive? I see Jack's gives a guarantee and an extra tank/dive...
