The road to Socorro
This has been on my whiteboard for a long time now and after visiting the Galapagos and Coco Islands, this was the next one on the list. Socorro island is one of the world’s richest areas of marine life, mainly due to the Arctic flow down the west coast of the USA and...

The seven year Palau itch
It has been 7 years since I last visited the beautiful Palau, and the seven year itch was calling me. So I headed back to explore this stunning island group 500km to the east of the Philippines. This place is like something out of a James Bond movie set, beautiful...

Well hey again, this was another great day out diving on the GBR and I had a feeling about it that there was something new waiting to be discovered. I was out with Passions of Paradise and the wind was only 10 – 15 knots, a perfect day considering its winter! The boat...
