6 years 5 months ago By Andrey Bizyukin

Macro in Mozambique

6 years 6 months ago By Kate Jonker

I have been diving in Ponta do Ouro, a small Mozambican coastal village 10km from the South African border, since 2002 and love its laid-back atmosphere, rustic village life, long sandy beaches and warm blue ocean, just waiting to be explored.

Black Water Diving in the East Sea

6 years 8 months ago By Andrey Bizyukin

Scotland: Muck Diving at Home

6 years 10 months ago By Lawson Wood

Christmas Island: Australia's Own Galapagos
