Egypt Red SeaMore than a Jeep safari - Real Technical Cave Diving!
20 kilometer south of Nuweiba, located in the National park Ras Abu Galum, you will find the famous drop off " Ras Mamlach".
We planned a dive into one of the cracks in the reef - the cave of Ras Mamlach, more than 100 meters deep.
Mission of the dive was to arrive at "the windows" - some openings at 65 m in the outer reef wall, leading to the blue water of the drop off...

Kenya Indian OceanHave ben diving at Shark Point several times with Peponi Divers. Its a PADI and BSAC diving centre. Shark Point was my No.1 dive site because it was very colourfull and there is a wide range of under water life. We had a good chance to spot 5 White Dip Reef Sharks, 2 Green Turtles and a big range of different fish at the same time. Also we spotted a huge Patatoe Grouper. The top of one dive wes to see a Whale Shark on the surface. We could swimm with the giant for about 10 to 15 minutes. I can really recomend the diving at Mombasa North Coats as it was my first time to dive in Kenya. I will deffenetly go back there to enjoy some more wonderfull dives.
All the best to Chris, the owner of Peponi Divers Mombasa

United States PacificHonolulu, Oahu, Hawaii
The YO 257 and the San Pedroo are the best wreck dive in the Hawaiian Islands. We have 2 170 ft shipwrecks laying side by side, 75 ft apart at a maximum depth of 100ft. Both wrecks have been there over 25 years and have atracted lots of marine live. There is tons of coral and fish, many big green sea turtles and 2 reef sharks that are permanent residents. It is a great dive for the intermediate (20 dives) to the experienced diver and a must to divers visiting the island of Oahu.

Kenya Indian OceanIt took about 30 minutes to this dive site. The wreck is an old steel shrimp boat which is about 120 feet long. My camera was kept busy with an octopus, rock cod, a moray and shoals of batfish. The wreck is quite incrusted so a good opportunity for macro.

Kenya Indian OceanThis dive is in the National Marine Reserve. A quick 20minute boat ride takes you to a moored buoy. A descent to about 10metres will find you at the reef top. Covered with soft and hard corals. Plenty here to photograph. Just over the edge of the reef is a large arch that was filled with a shoal of glass fish. There are two reefs that you can explore, separated by a gully. We were told that whale sharks have been seen here, but were not lucky enough to encounter one ourselves. We did however see two turtles swimming calmly past, and spotted what looked like a dolphin in the distance.
