Martinique Caribbean SeaWhat a great spot! Starting out very shallow with lots of coral blocks full of small creatures; crabs, shrimps, frogfish, nudibranches etc. Towards the corner of the bay the reef slowly starts to drop to around 100'. Here again lots of big coral boulders encrusted with tube sponge and barrel sponges. Silversides circling the boulders and in between snappers and jacks.
This dive site holds great picture opportunities for macro and wide angle alike!
I found this dive site while anchored in that bay with the 58' catamaran I work on. But I am sure there are dive shops who will go and dive there.

United States PacificGreat area to dive. Lots of reef fish, moray eels, mantas, and dolphins, macro & wide angle subjects. There are numerous dive operators to take you boat diving as well as lots of shore dives to do. The most popular shore dive is at "The Place of Refuse". The dive site is called "Two Step", named for the two lava steps leading into the water. Ask any dive shop how to get there. Diving in Kona would not be complete without doing the night manta dive. This is a Boat dive and well worth it.

Egypt Red SeaNot good for the day, but can have some nice surprises in Nightdives.
It's a tie up point for liveaboards out of Sharm and a handy shake down dive.
Basically a huge coral bommy. I've seen shoals of barracuda, crocodile fish. Hawkfish can be found on the black coral. The usual Gorgonia, Lionfish, and a huge Napolean Wrasse in a cave having his mouth cleaned!

Malaysia South China SeaTioman Island (locally, Pulau Tioman) is a small island located 32 km off the east coast of Peninsular Malaysia in the state of Pahang, and is some 39 km long and 12 km wide. It has eight main villages, the largest and most populous being Kampung Tekek in the north. Yet, the densely forested island is still sparsely inhabited, and is surrounded by numerous coral reefs, making it a scuba diving haven.
Its beaches were depicted in the 1958 movie, South Pacific as Bali Hai. In the 1970s, TIME Magazine selected Tioman as one of the world’s most beautiful islands.
Apart from its diverse marine life, the inland rainforest area, encompassing approximately 12,383 hectares, in Tioman is a strictly enforced nature reserve. There are several protected species of mammals on the island, including the Binturong, Long-tailed Macaque, Slow Loris, Black Giant Squirrel, Red Giant Flying Squirrel, Mouse deer, Brush-tailed Porcupine, and Common Palm Civet, from a total of 45 species of mammals and 138 species of birds, including the majestic Frigatebird. Moreover, Tioman has species that are endemic to its shores. The soft-shelled turtle and the Tioman walking catfish are both unique and can be seen on rainforest walks.
The island is served by ferries from the Malaysian mainland, and a propeller plane service by Berjaya Air from Singapore (Seletar Airport) and Kuala Lumpur (Subang Airport)
