Indonesia Celebes SeaThere is an abundance of exotic diversity in the many dive sites off Bangka Island. Some are accessible by shore, while others are visited by resort dayboats and/or liveaboards. There are many great walls and pinnacles along the east and north-east, inhabited by both large and small fish. Exquisite hard table corals and a riot of colored soft corals can be found here too. In the east, tiny Pontohi Pygmy seahorses cling to vertical walls where they're challenging to find and photograph in the current. Also to the east are sandy muck dives boasting the Flamboyant Cuttlefish, always an iridescent treat. Many great macro dives are to the west, where a stunning variety of Nudibranches can be found. The tiny knobby pink Pygmy Seahorses, Hippocampus Barbiganti, cling to pink gorgonian sea fans, never failing to impress. All in all, the diving in Indonesia is spectacular, and the diving off Bangka Island did not disappoint in May-June 2010.

Mexico Sea Of Cortés /Gulf of Californiathere are no dive facilities in santa rosalia. you have to bring everything yourself, and unless you bring a boat as well you have to make friends with the local fishermen and rent one of their boats to take you out. diving with humboldt squid is dangerous,
so it is essential to have the right safety gear like shark suits, helmets, steel cables as dive lines and most importantly an experienced guide who has dived with these animals before!!!!!

Philippines Sulu and Sulawesi SeasThis is a great new dive site for whale sharks which is very accessible from Puerto Princesa, the provincial capital of Palawan. The whale sharks can be found there at any time of the year but their presence there is much less predictable than at Donsol. A great variety of feeding behaviour can be observed and they are often feeding in association with skipjack tuna and seabirds, which makes locating them very easy. The water visibility is generally excellent.

Honduras Gulf Of MexicoThis was a guided shark dive about 5 miles offshore Roatan where the first 15 minutes were spent in the midst of expectant sharks with many great photo ops. We were then gathered against a wall. A bucket of chum was opened about 50 feet away while we watched the feeding frenzy with many more photo ops at a healthy distance. It was a great dive!
