Sea Turtle Conservation in Costa Rica (with Randall Arauz)

We dive with a purpose – to enjoy the oceans, but we want to help it’s residents, our marine friends.

The Similan and Surin Islands – let Jacques Cousteau describe it….

”The waters of the Similan islands are crystalline and pure; they are teeming with invertebrates.  The blue and white affection of these unspoiled beaches, washed by a clear sea, is reminiscent of the skies painted by baroque masters”  – Jacques Cousteau

Curaçao’s Premier Dive Operator, with four custom dive boats and quick access to some of the Caribbean’s most pristine and dramatic reefs, and it’s set on the island of Curaçao—still a well-kept secret.  The island’s epicenter of Willemstad is like Amsterdam with palm trees, dishing up nightlife, upscale dining, shopping and a mix of Spanish and Portuguese architecture honored as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Fakarava is the second largest atoll in French Polynesia.  It is also classified as “Biosphere Reserve” by UNESCO in 2006.  The two passes that connect its lagoon to the ocean are GARUAE and TUMAKOHUA.  They offer among the best dive sites in all of French Polynesia.

Raja Ampat is the heart of the Coral Triangle.  According to Conservation International marine surveys suggest that the marine life diversity in the Raja Ampat area is the highest recorded on earth.

The Sea of Cortez harbors a rich marine ecosystem as diverse and spectacular as any on Earth.  We’re going specifically to swim with the Mobula Rays, during their annual aggregation, and if we’re really lucky, there will be Orcas looking for a snack bar in the sea.

On every trail hiked, and every dive explored, there will be new discoveries.  It’s in the heart of the Atlantic, nine amazing islands, that exist complete with nature.  This wholly sustainable Atlantic archipelago awaits.

Sipadan is home to the best diving in Borneo, many say in the world.  Famous for massive schools of fish, spiraling barracudas, massive green turtles and schooling reef sharks, diving in the pumping current here is spectacular.  Jacques Cousteau said, “I have seen other places like Sipadan, 45 years ago, but now no more”

The Kinabatangan River has gained a justified reputation as one of the top wildlife watching destinations in Southeast Asia.

Moalboal means ‘bubbling stream’, it’s a small town on the island of Cebu, with at least 25 recognized dive sites and more are being discovered.  The range of diving is excellent, with vertical walls, a cathedral like cave, healthy coral reefs and plenty of macro life.

Across the channel from Cebu is the beautiful island of Bohol, a tropical haven of natural beauty, with pristine beaches and colourful coral dive sites.  Land attractions include the resident tarsiers and the world-famous Chocolate Hills.
