The underwater world is amazing and full of life, and scuba diving is by far the best way to explore it. It is a whole new world, and there is a seemingly endless number of dive sites worth exploring. There are colorful coral reefs that are bustling with life, blue water dives during which might observe large shivers of sharks, and so much more.
I learned to dive in Sydney and fell in love with it right away. Since then, I have had the chance to dive all around the world, and yet, every single dive still feels just as thrilling as the first one. Gliding through the water alongside turtles and fish is the ultimate freedom as you feel weightless. It is the closest one can get to flying.
“The sea, once it casts its spell, holds one in its net of wonder forever.”
– Jacques Cousteau

Diving Bucket List
There are many incredible dive sites around the world, and even after having dived on four continents, there are still many more dive sites I would love to explore. In addition to new diving destinations, there are also many places I would love to revisit. Especially, if I dove somewhere just after I had gotten my OWD & AOWD.
The destinations listed below, are just a selection of places I have already been fortunate enough to dive at extensively, and places that are the highest on my list. As the diving section of this website continues to grow, I will add to this list so you can read all about diving at individual destinations.
