Outrage at Malta diver death verdict

The buddy of a diver who tragically died during a dive in Malta has been convicted of involuntary homicide, which local dive operators fear may have severe implications for the islands' hugely important dive tourism business

Suing over sewage

The UK government has published a plan to reduce the amount of raw sewage being pumped into the nation's rivers and seas, but the Marine Conservation Society says it falls so far short that legal action is required to force real change.

Advancements, not advanced

Advanced in name, but not by nature. Mark 'Crowley' Russell explains why Advanced entry-level courses don't turn people into advanced-level divers, but are necessary advancements along a learning curve that should never end.

Dive fever at Aliwal Shoal

Shortfin devil rays are close relatives of manta rays, but we know very little about them - including where they go to make use of cleaning stations. A new initiative in South Africa hopes to expand awareness of the rays' habits for better conservation.

Our Autumn 2022 magazine is all about the new experiences that diving can bring us, as long as we're prepared to put the effort in - as expert photographer Alfred Minnaar found out when he spent four months learning to cave dive in the cenotes of Mexico's Yucatán peninsula. Douglas David Seifert explores the complex dynamics of cleaning stations, along with more of his stunning photography; more of which is provided by Tom St George as he dusts off his macro lens to explore the black sands of Dumaguete and Puerto Galera in the Philippines. We feature an extract from marine biologist and poet Fiona Gell's new book, Spring Tides, as she comes face-to-shell with ancient quahog; and Mark 'Crowley' Russell discusses why 'advanced' courses are not meant to be advanced, and why it's imperative that divers never stop learnin. Plus: book reviews, news, our latest marine curio and more. Buy your art-quality coffee-table print copy now from the magazine stands, or from our online store priced at £4.99*.
