Maldives Indian OceanOn our way to 65' depth to watch the sharks in the strong currents. Used reef hook to tie in and wait for the show when this nice moray decided to run by us in all his glory. Many of the dive sites from this live aboard had strong currents, but also lots of sharks, mantas, and other large fish.

Turks and Caicos islands Caribbean SeaStayed on Grand Turk. Almost no current on Caribean side of the island, waters was 76-78F in April. Have whales in March. Island is somewhat primative. Currently 3 hotels. Largest had 20 rooms. We stayed on north west side of island so the wall dives were only 5-10 minutes away by boat. We were usually the only group diving and made for a very relaxing dive vacation. Typical day was up by 8, boat left around 9 or whenever we were ready... Dive 1 a wall dive to 80-100 feet for 20 minutes then top of reef for 20 minutes, then roam around small coral heads in the shallows till air ran out. Back to the resort for a snack and 1 hour interval. Then repeat for dive 2. A few days we squeezed in shore dives in the afternoon and one night dive. Most days we would spend the afternoon exploring the island, take a break to watch the sunset, then off to dinner. About 2000 people live on the island and approximately 30 donkeys and a number of dogs roam around the island.

New Zealand PacificShallow shore dive (max depth 8m) with strong 12knot rip tides through the bay, so only safe to dive from 30 minutes before to 30 minutes after high and low tides. Easy entry from the sandy beach, near rocks exposed at low tide. Lots of marine life in just the first few metres. Out in the deeper channel there are clumps of colourful sponges. Sea Temp 21c (Jan 2008)

United Kingdom North SeaA sack barrow is the best way to get your kit to the end of the harbour wall!
Once there it is a relatively easy scramble to get in (by St Abbs standards).
You can see Cathedral rock at low tide, that's the best way to find it.
A great swim through interesting gullies to get there.
It's a great swim through arch with plenty of plumose anemones.
