DIVE's Big Shot - win a Thailand liveaboard trip!

The latest iteration of our Big Shot underwater photo competition starts now! Send us your best images from the caves, caverns and overhangs of the underwater world for the chance to win an Aggressor Adventures liveaboard trip to Thailand!

Featured Photographer - Rowan Dear

Our latest Featured Photographer is Rowan Dear, originally from Wales and now living in Australia, who overcame a lifelong fear of water to become an award-winning underwater photographer, with a stunning portfolio of images.

Thirty per cent more

The Dominican Republic becomes the latest country to formally declare that 30 per cent of its oceans are to be protected to preserve local marine life.

How little we know

Scientists have discovered a new species of shark off the coast of New Zealand, and are calling for further research to identify more.

Fiji's shark-feeding boom

Shark-feeding dives are controversial, but they benefit both shark populations and the communities that earn a living from shark tourism. Writer and photographer Alison Smith argues the case for Fiji, but suggests better regulation is required.

Free octopus! Again!

Scubapro's never-ending octopus offer returns once more with two models of octopus available for free with selected first and second stage combos.

Plastic wet wipe ban

Good news in the fight against plastic pollution as the UK Government announces a ban on the supply and sale of plastic-containing wet wipes.

Record-breaker! Again!

Alessia Zecchini has broken her own world record at the CMAS Camotes Freediving Challenge held in the Philippines earlier this month.
