Malaysia South China SeaThe dive site consists of a long line of tangled rope, probably old fishing equipment. Sandy bottom with the rope acting as shelter for marine life. Nearby there are some seafans that usually have false cowries (Phenacovolva sp.) on them. Rare forms of nudibranchs such as Bornella stellifer and Thecacera pennigera are crawling around. Some large Map Puffers (Arothron mappa) choose to rest here and there is supposed to be a Frogfish near the seafans, but we didn't find him. Sea Temp in May 29c

Fiji Koro SeaVisit by liveaboard (the Naia), or by the resort on the island. There are many great dive sites. Wall dives with sightings of blue ribbon eels, large hammerhead and black tip sharks, along with wonderful macro opportunites. Have also had many dives with manta rays. Fiji is great diving all year, but my favorite time of year is April - June.

Malaysia South China SeaThe dive site is a large pinnacle sea mount, the tip of which protrudes from the sea. The base of the mount is around 24 metres where you can find Nurse Sharks and Blue-Spotted Ribbontail Rays resting under coral during the day. There is a shelf at about 12 metres which is covered in anemones and soft corals. Schools of Bigeye Snapper hang around the North side with Yellowtail Barracuda patrolling nearby. The currents can be strong here, but you can usually shelter on the leeside, if it's not possible to go completely around. It is a very popular dive site and usually has 5 to 6 boats on it in the morning, so it can get a bit congested with dive groups. Late afternoon is usually best for avoiding the crowds. Sea Temp in May 29c

United Kingdom South China SeaDive site is a shallow lagoon (max depth 12m) in a sheltered sandy bay. There is normally no current and the area is roped off for snorkelers to use, so it's a popular site with lots of boat traffic and for that reason care needs to be taken if diving on the deeper outside edge of the lagoon. It has a large coral reef with densely packed coral heads fringing the lagoon. Experienced divers will probably want to dive along the fringing edge and avoid the shallower snorkeling areas.
