What are these massive schools of tiny fish called? They were maybe only a few inches long. There are a few different types mixed in. Are they some type of juvenile? Mixed in there are some that have a yellow nose/mouth area. These were seen at Richelieu Rock in the Andaman Sea.

#2 - Goldspot seabream or Striped large-eye bream #3 - Humpback Snapper

Hello, I am going to the Maldives in April, and I am looking to pair this with another location. I will have about 1 week after the Maldives. The Maldives is already booked, and I want to pair this with a week in another location in Asia. For the second location, I am looking for a place...

Keep in mind that in May, Lanta has seasonal closures for certain dive sites (Ko Ha and Hin Daeng/Hin Muang). I was in Lanta last year right before the low season started, and the company we were with mentioned that they still go out. However, they usually partner and share a boat with other...

Does anyone have a dive op recommendation for Antigua? I was reading that the south/west side of the island is a bit better for diving. Does anyone have a specific recommendation for location? Are there any ops that cater more to people staying on island rather than coming by cruise ship? I...

Why would you not recommend Dominica? What are the negatives? I stayed 5 nights when I had gone to Cayman Brac and did enjoy my time there. We did not make it to Little Cayman for a day trip from the Brac, so I have not yet experienced Bloody Bay Wall. What can I expect for fish life on the...

I am starting to plan a 8-9 night trip for June and am looking for suggestions. My last trip was to Taveuni, Fiji and I believe that I am now spoiled after seeing such amazing reefs/fish life. I loved seeing the abundance of fish life and the beautiful soft corals. I would prefer to go to...

Thank you for the detailed response! We decided that we will be able to spend 1 day diving at the Poor Knights. Do you also have any recommendations for non-diving activities in that area? Is goat island also worth a visit?

Hello, In March I'm going to be in New Zealand for an extended 5 or 6 day connection before continuing to Fiji. Since I'm traveling from the east coast of the US and not sure when I'll be back, I was thinking about doing a 1 day trip to the Poor Knights. We want to also travel to the glow...

Let me elaborate...I knew the reef was different, which I was ok with. I also saw good stuff in San Pedro. It mostly had to do with the conditions. At Turneffe, we dived leeward as much as possible so that it was mostly easy surface conditions. This made diving pretty easy. I knew there...

I decided to split my time between Turneffe and San Pedro. Turneffe was definitely worth the trip. The dives were great, and I wish I could've stayed longer. I was actually a bit disappointed in San Pedro diving after being out at Turneffe. I stayed a bit north of San Pedro, which I enjoyed...

I think I am going to do Ambergris Caye only since this is my first trip to Belize (other than a dive during a cruise stop). I was thinking of staying either north or south of San Pedro since it looks like there might be better beaches there and looks a bit more quiet. Is this accurate? Do...

Hello! We are planning a last minute trip to Belize in June. There does not seem to be too much recent info on Placencia diving. How does the diving compare to Ambergris Caye? We were thinking about splitting the time between the 2 locations. Is it worth it to try both or just one location...

For the dives the you are using the hook, do you stay in one place the entire dive? Or, is it more like you drift for a bit, hook for a few, and then continue on? How does Palau compare to diving at the GBR? I am also considering Australia.

I was flying through Honolulu and traveling for 2 weeks. I was thinking of traveling to Auckland and then on to Australia. Another option I am looking at is Palua since I have United mileage.

The plan was to go there in 2 weeks...making other arraignments now. Breaks my heart to see those pictures. Prayers for everyone in Fiji!

Hello! I am looking for some advice on diving in Palau and Guam. How are the conditions in March? I was thinking about staying a few days in Guam before continuing on to Palau. I have never been to Guam and need to layover anyway, so I thought I may extend it a bit. I was looking into MDA...

Thanks for the help! Since I just got back, I'll update some of this information. We bought a map called Kris Kras Road Map 2014 which was very helpful. We got a hang of driving around the island after a few days. We didn't want to bring a gps with us shore diving, so we relied on the map...

Hello, I am planning a trip to Curacao. I have been there once before about 8 years ago, but did not do any shore diving (I didn't know better back then!). I have been to Bonaire a few times, and I am wondering about a few things: - Should the same parking precautions be used, such as...

In case anyone has a similar question...they won't book a package with a dinner only option. You can pay for individual dinners at the dining room or bar. If you pay for the dining room dinner daily, it is almost equivalent in cost to the MAP. So, the MAP makes sense. The AI package does not...
