United States PacificEasy dive area with sandy beach entry along coral and rock wall. This area is also called 5 caves or 5 graves. The main attaction in this dive are the caves where whitetip reef sharks are often found relaxing during the daytime. Some small reef fish, nudibranches, christmas tree worms, etc. can be located in the coral along the rock ledge.

United States PacificGreat place fro photography, water is usually clear with minimal backscatter. A couple whitetip reef sharks usually sleep under the rubble in the daytime, choke turtles, variety of large and small marine life including a very large Ulua that likes to cruise through the area. Entry is difficult and should be made on the left side (away from the boat ramp) by walking about 40 - 50 yards on rocks in knee deep water. There can be surf that will challenge your ability to maintain your balance. MUST wear good booties because of rock boring urchins in some of the rocks.

Norway Atlantic (European coastal)This is about 1 hour with a small boat from Kristiansund, at the NW coast of Norway.
The name of the nearest island is called Hestøya (Horse Island). The dive site is sheltered from the worst weather, but it may be bit current and that does so it becomes a rich macro life. The depht you can vary from the surface to about 30-35 meters. This picture is taken in the winter when the visibility is at it`s best.
Mostly I use my own boat for diving around Kristiansund.
