• THE HEART OF THE OCEAN

  AN INTRODUCTION TO CORAL & CORAL REEFS To understand the value of Coral we need to understand its role in the ocean as well as our relationship to the ocean. Be aware of the following factors, indicative that we actually live on PLANET OCEAN and not Earth. We usually meet the sea where it meets…

• HOLDING AN ECOSYSTEM IN MY HAND

  A LAST SNORKEL The sand is not just sea sand. It’s a magical mix of crushed shells, rock, other organic matter and teeny weeny shells, recognisable as such – a condensed ecosystem. The sun was lower than on my usual snorkelling explorations at Pointe d’Esny. I was lying in the shallows with my mask on,…

• An Emperor on the HMS Sirius

• UNLIKELY BUDDIES

  I cannot imagine that SCUBA diving would ever stop to excite me, as each dive, even on the same location, is a completely different experience. But my 18th dive was a morning dive. I admit that upon waking at 07h00 in the morning, my first thought is not, “Hey, let’s get wet and go diving”,…
