Default SCUBA - Best Dives

What's your favorite dive site and why? Bonus points for nov-rev tips and cool spots to stay!

I'm a fan of the wall dives in Cayman, but it's not as easy to get to as it once was. Shallow or deep, all the dive were good. The most hype was Stingray City, which I'm glad I did, but the wall dives were way better. I have no idea about current deals there, so if anyone has been lately let us know.

I recently dove in Kona and over the last 15 years, the coral has taken an absolute beating. The Manta night Dive with Jack's Diving Locker is awesome though and a "must add" to any divers logbook!

Anyone with recent South Pacific or Med. sites and deals?

Bonaire hands down! The ecosystem has been protected for decades from fishing. It's amazing!

Pretty much anywhere in the Indian or tropical Pacific Ocean. The whole countries of Indonesia and Philippines are like one big dive site. Malaysia--on the island of Borneo you have Sipadan which they only give out 120 permits a day; you can see basically every rare tropical creature that you usually only see once a trip on vacation on one dive alone.

Honestly, there is so much out there that hasn't been explored or hasn't made it into a brochure--typically if it's talked about, it's already in danger of being touristed out and it's just a matter of time.
