Diving and photography are my passions and I've been lucky enough to be diving since I was 15 years old. Currently I'm a PADI IDC Staff Instructor and have been instructing in the Caribbean, Hawaii, and the South Pacific for 9 years and have a USCG captain's license. I love sharing the underwater world through words and pictures and whenever possible, showing people my favorite dive sites.

Papua New Guinea's Milne Bay
Papua New Guinea is one of the world's best dive destinations and Milne Bay offers fantastic reef diving and muck diving in the same location. Clear waters and phenomenal creatures make for an excellent dive trip that’s entirely worth the travel time.
The SS Thistlegorm
The SS Thistlegorm rests at the bottom of the northern Red Sea. Bombed and sunk during World War II, this ship was first discovered by Jacques Cousteau and then forgotten about till the 1990s. Now it is the Red Sea’s most famous (and most dived) wreck.
Humpbacks of the Silver Bank
Nothing compares to being in the water with a 40 foot humpback whale. These beautiful and graceful animals are nothing short of amazing. The Silver Bank is a winter gathering place for humpbacks and more recently, snorkelers, who come to go eye to eye with one of the largest animals on earth.
On Seahorse Love
When boy meets girl in the world of seahorses a beautiful and often extensive courtship occurs. They change colors and entwine their tails. Then they rise off the seafloor and the female deposits her eggs into the male’s pouch. Wait…the male gets pregnant? Keep reading for more on seahorse love.
Mandarinfish-The Courtship Dance
On the reefs of the Pacific, twilight marks the beginning of the mandarinfish courtship dance. A male begins dancing, and if he’s desirable, an interested female will join. Just before the sun sets, the two fish will rise up out of the reef together to mate, cheek-to-cheek.
6 Dive Sites To Add To Your Scuba Bucket List
Scuba diving (as a New Year’s Resolution) coalesces the most common resolutions made each year. But even divers have their own NY resolutions; they can get bored, especially if they’ve been diving the same spots over and over again. A new year calls for adding some new and unique destinations onto your scuba bucket list.
Blue Heron Bridge
North America's muck diving. The weird and wonderful, under Florida's Blue Heron Bridge.
Colorful Fiji
Pinks, purples, yellows, and reds - underwater Fiji is all about color. Soft corals abound and brilliant marine life makes the diving picture perfect. Known as the Soft Coral Capital of the World, Fiji does not disappoint.
Prinz Eugen - Bismarck Era Ship Wreck Dive, Marshall Islands
Every sunken ship has a story, and that of the Prinz Eugen is especially unique. Starting in the North Atlantic as a German Navy vessel in World War II, it continued on to the Pacific to play a role in the nuclear tests at Bikini Atoll. It capsized in 1946 at Kwajalein Atoll, Marshall Islands, where it now rests for divers to explore.

My only regret about diving with Prodive is not being able to stay long enough to dive with them more! The boat crew was fantastic and really went out of their way to help us have the best experience possible, which included staying out on the water much longer than we were suppose to because there were whales, dolphins, and orcas!

I couldn't have asked for a better experience than what Aliwal Dive Centre provided during three days of tiger shark dives and reef dives on the Aliwal Shoal. Their staff is great and their dive lodge on the property makes it convenient and comfortable to dive and stay with them. I can't wait to go back and dive with them again!
