If you’ve read any of our blog posts about diving Malaysia, or follow us on Instagram or Facebook, you’ve probably heard of the Sipadan Reef, but there’s lot of great diving to be found in Malaysia, here are six more diving destinations to add to your (ever-growing) list.
The diving at Uepi is spectacular – it’s a great place to experience the fantastic marine life that the Solomons has to offer; and for a very good reason: it’s a barrier island between Marovo Lagoon and the deep blue sea beyond.
With so many really special dive sites around Australia, to ask us to pick our favourite spot is a big ask. But that’s exactly what Bupa Travel Insurance asked us in their recent article, ‘Scuba Diving Adventures Around Australia’.
More often than not, the best diving is off the beaten track. In the case of diving Kadavu and Taveuni, this holds particularly true as their dive sites include the world class dive sites of the Great White Wall, Rainbow Reef and the great Astrolabe Reef.
Heard the name Raja Ampat, but not quite sure what makes it so special? In three words: location, location, location. In one: Biodiversity. But why, and how, and why again? Diveplanit explains.
There are a few reasons why you might want to dive in American Samoa: it has no less than six marine sanctuaries, it’s remote – but not that remote, and it has the BIGGEST CORALS IN THE WORLD!
Munda is unique in all the diving destinations in the Solomon Islands – not just because of great dive sites, but because there’s lots more to explore.
You’ll find plenty of variety diving Nelson Bay, great boat dives with guaranteed Grey Nurse Shark sightings, plus some excellent shore dives to focus on the small stuff.
Lady Elliot Island, on the southern Great Barrier Reef, has great diving year round and being just 10 km from the East Australian Current has visits from mantas, turtles and whales at different times of the year.
Wondering what the diving is like in Fiji post Tropical Cyclone Winston? Diveplanit interviewed Heather Sutton, who was there at the time, and dived Taveuni’s reefs just days after the storm.
