Where is the best place in the world to dive?

Finally reaching the end of my university career and after four quite hard years decided it is time to have a couple of months out before starting my new job. Anyway quite fancy going somewhere where there will be plenty of diving like Indonesia around September time but before I book up I thought I would ask the question, where have you dived and where do you think the best place on earth is to dive?

Aidan

I have dived all over the world and I think the best place to dive is the UK.

Honestly and truly.

Course you would, you'd be going to Scapa, or the south coast, or somewhere.... And because Janos has saved you all that money you should split it with him

Typical I look at going all around the world to find the best diving sites and the best one is 15 miles away from where I live! Where about in the Farne Islands Whirl Rocks?

I've liked everywhere I've dived so far. (except the golf course lake in Abergavenny which was a bit grim).

It's very subjective.

If I had the budget and a couple of months I'd do the Baltic.

My one excursion there so far was magic.

Aidan,


there is fantastic diving in UK but do you want to travel a bit too

Where depends what sort of diving you like to do; wrecks, caverns, fish watching, macro photography, sharks etc etc. and also what sort of budget you have.



SE Asia - eg Philippines & Indonesia have some great diving at all levels and relatively cheap.

Wrecks - Subic, Coron Bay.



For info -

A friend of mine took a few months to travel around SE Asia and has posted a few photos on webshots

matthubball's photos and albums on webshots


Cheers, John
