Jordan Red SeaRight at the end of the dive we were making our way back to shore. I saw an old rusty barrel with this guy on it. It was a really easy shot to take as I just knelt in the sand and rested my camera on the barrel. Obviously he didn't like me being so close and flared up for me.

Mexico Caribbean SeaIncredible dive sites huge diversity of locations flora and fauna within the Sian Ka'an Bioreserve. Area has almost every conceivable type of dive available to the dive addict. Dives are all exploratory at this point as the reserve has been sealed off for 25 years and is only beginning to open up its secrets. No telecommunications available so local radio, gps sat nav, and own supply of tanks, compressors, Oxygen etc vital. All traffic is in and out of Punta Herrero a tiny fishing village beyond which is pure jungle and lagoon one of the last stretches of virgin territory. Access to this area of bioreserve only by special permission.

East Timor Banda SeaMilo's Reef (named after a young resident who lives in the house fringing the beach nearby) is a 75 by 11 meter shallow NW by SE facing reef set at between 5-8 meters on a sand plain adjoining a drop-off to 35 meters. The dive is overlooked as it is located just east of two of Dili's more iconic sites, namely Dili rock and Taci Tolu. The dive entry point is straight out from the Taci Tolu youth center via a sand beach (probably the best shore entry in Timor-Leste. The reef is the home to a number of macro critters and because of its relative isolation on a sand plain is a fish mecca depending on tides with the usual suspects but Dugon, Turtles, Spotted Eagle Rays, Reef Sharks and Giant Barracuda are frequently encountered. The reef is also a favourite of the Atauro Spearo community who are more than happy to be the subject of wide angle photography sessions. The dive is an ideal refresher and photography dive and you can drift the drop-off as part of the experience pausing when the sound of 'frollicking puppies' is heard as this is the sign for passing Dugon who when you are on gear will check you out from a distance. If you are snorkling - the resident Dugon - Douglas will get in your face on a good day. Subject to longshore currents on occasion but there are good exits to the east and west of the site. No one dives this site except those lucky enough to have houses on the waterfront nearby or visitors on guided trips with freeflowdivingtimorleste.com who are aware of the site and do take divers there from time to time.
