100 Dives of a Lifetime: The World's Ultimate Underwater Destinations
100 Dives of a Lifetime Oceans have historically been something that has separated
us. An ocean apart. Across the sundering seas. The oceans between us. Now, more
than ever before, we understand the sea connects us. It is our shared life support
system, a borderless expanse linking one continent with the next. It is our collective
history, witness to fledgling seafaring attempts that advanced to legendary voyages,
ghastly battles, and staggering discoveries. Divers know the pang of disappointment
reaching the half-tank mark when thereâ€s still so much more to discover. Divers
understand the rich wonder of seeing a different world—full of color and life—play out
in front of their eyes, a world few people get to observe. This shared experience
creates a community of fellow adventurers. Read more Beginner Dives New Caledonia,
Cathedral Nature has been kind to New Caledonia. This French territory, located 750
miles northeast of Brisbane, Australia, has an immense barrier reef—about 990 miles
wrapped around one of the worldâ€s largest lagoons. For divers, New Caledonia
offers an array of diverse explorations including shallow lagoon dives, night dives, reef
dives, open sea and underwater drift dives. Iceland, Thingvellir This is the place where
worlds collide. The North American and Eurasian tectonic plates run side by side in
Thingvellir, and divers willing to brave cold fingers can touch geologic history, placing a
hand on each continent. Diving the Silfra fissure in Thingvellir National Park isnâ€t
difficult—just cold. After jumping in via a platform, the first thing that strikes divers is
the unsurpassed clarity of the water. The visibility of this glacial spring extends
hundreds of feet, providing an uninterrupted view of the channel walls, which seem to
emanate a glowing blue light. Mexico, Afuera Isla Mujeres, the Island of Women, is
known for its spectacular sunsets, friendly locals, and white sand beaches. Once a
former fishing village, itâ€s now known for one thing: the largest aggregation of whale
sharks in the world. Although the experience is snorkel-only, it is unforgettable: Sharing
the water with these distinctively patterned behemoths is both peaceful and exhilarating
at the same time. Incredibly docile and agile, whale sharks are protected here by the
establishment of the Whale Shark Biosphere Reserve in 2009, and whale shark tourism
is highly regulated. Read more Intermediate Dives Norfolk Island Norfolk Island is one
of the most geographically isolated communities in Australia, which makes it one of the
most geographically isolated communities on the planet. Located northwest of New
Zealand and east of Brisbane, smack in the middle of the Tasman Sea, Norfolk Island
is as unique, odd, and untouched as its volcanic neighbor, Lord Howe Island. The
islandâ€s underwater volcanic landscape is a playground for scuba enthusiasts:
Caves, chimneys, tunnels, chasms, and reefs surround it, offering up more than 30
unique dive spots. Kavachi Corner Known locally as Rejo te Kavachi (Kavachiâ€s
Oven), itâ€s not a stretch to imagine a restless and willful ocean god fretting and
fuming beneath the waves, chafing at mortal confinement. Divers would be unwise to
venture too close to Kavachiâ€s Oven, but you can dive close enough to feel the sea
godâ€s presence. Kavachi Corner is a spot 18 miles south of Kicha Island, northeast
