Win a PADI eLearning course for Shark Week!

Spring '23 Magazine

It's almost time for our Summer issue but we still have a handful - and we mean a handful - of our fantastic Spring magazine left on the office shelves. Get your copy before it's gone, packed as always with great stories as Mark 'Crowley' Russell talks to Marine Megafauna Foundation co-founders Dr Andrea Marshall and Dr Simon Pierce about the effort that needs to be put in to make sustainability work, and has a chat with Sharm El Sheikh's Dr Adel Taher about the early days of scuba diving in Egypt, with an extract from his book, Let There Be a Red Sea. We revisit Curaçao with expert photographer Valentina Cucchiara; take a tour around Northern Diver's Lancashire home; investigate the wonders of seagrass - and the threats it faces - with Lewis Jefferies & Dr Richard Lilley; expert freediving instructor Emma Farrell teaches us the secrets of better breathing; and Timo Dersch takes us to the end of the world in the volcanic sands of El Hierro. Plus our much-loved Big Shot photo competition is back! Buy your copy now or subscribe in print & digital from just £22.99* to make sure you don't miss out!

*UK price; international postal charges extra.
