We were very lucky, I agree. For me hammerheads are what I always seem to miss, but I hope that I will eventually get a chance to see them. We stayed right near everything in Placencia at a place called Garden Lodge. Comfortable, basic accommodations with a private bathroom and shared kitchen...
Placencia, located in the relaxed, southern end of Belize, is a place where everything gets done, but at a far less stressful pace than areas with heavy tourist traffic. Good food and friendly people are easy to find in this colorful village that has long been a haven for ocean lovers and scuba...

Baja’s tranquil seaside capital, La Paz, is one of the most charming cities for R&R on the Baja California Peninsula. It is also one of the best places on the Sea of Cortez for scuba diving and snorkeling. There are over 25 dive sites near the shores of La Paz and diving can be done year-round...
We actually weren't thrilled with where we stayed, so it sounds like jfe has a good recommendation.
If I had it to do again I would just book the first night or two and find a place once I arrive. We got a deal on what is supposed to be one of the nicer places near the main road but it was not...
For many, Madagascar is a far-off, exotic destination reserved for bucket lists and daydreams, but perhaps it's time to make your dreams come true. Pristine waters, white sand beaches and whale shark sightings are part of everyday life in Nosy Be, and with tourism growing at a rate of 11% each...

Scuba Diving in Tofo Beach, Mozambique during humpback whale season was one of our greatest experiences. These amazing whales can be spotted frequently, even from the beach. Add to this some dolphins, a whale shark, and a whole slew of sea life living next to one of the most charming towns in...
Whether it be wrecks, hammerheads, or stunning reefs, there is a lot to see when diving the world class waters of the Red Sea, so much so, that it is difficult to know where to go first. From north to south you can almost always expect good to excellent visibility, with water temperatures of...

We teamed up with Two Fish Divers for another scuba diving adventure in Indonesia. This time we traveled to beautiful Lembeh Island in Sulawesi to do some muck diving. Read on to learn more about the bizarre...
Hairy frogfish are extremely effective ambush hunters. Their skin is covered in irregular dermal spindles which resemble hairs & they have the ability to change color & disappear in their surroundings. Hairy frogfish use their first dorsal spine as a fishing lure into their wide mouths.
I recommend making sure you have at least 3-days of diving in Komodo however that works out. As I wrote in the article, I stayed at the Dragon Dive Hotel/Hostel, but I know the Liveaboard has similar comforts and design - and my understanding is that it is about 20%-30% less expensive than most...
Thank you. I hope you have an amazing time. I would bring the 5 mm. My husband, who was the photographer, didn’t wear a wetsuit at all but he’s very warm blooded. The rest of we’re cold, so the 5 mm was nice to have.
All dive sites in Komodo National Park are open and fully accessible. You can still see the dragons too. If you are considering a holiday here there is no reason to be deterred. Here's all the information about our recent scuba diving trip to Komodo.
