Tutuba Island - pristine hard corals and awesome swim throughs… apologies for the particulate - I was second last through this one! I love the shafts of light. @pacific_dive @vanuatuislands

Bokissa Reef - what a stunner! Fields and fields of staghorn coral and all the pretty reef fish 😍 Great last dive with @pacific_dive here in Santo! @vanuatuislands

Million Dollar Point, Espiritu Santo, Vanuatu. An incredible display of man’s ability to rate waste higher than gifting a million dollars worth of equipment to an ally. They’d rather dump it in the ocean. The site is a mess of tires and machinery- and teeming with marine life some 80 years later. Great dive!

Up before the birds this morning for a very peaceful walk up to Dobroyd Head where I found a gorgeous Little Rock wallaby with a joey in her pouch!

Lucky me! An exclusive behind the scenes tour of the mammoth production in Brisbane of the Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo. The first performance is tonight and they’re expecting a crowd of 32,000 people.!

We’ve spent the last few days escorting a group of American dive club managers on a tour of the Cairns hinterland before they boarded @spiritoffreedomcairns - this was a highlight of a tour with @fnq_naturetours - licking ant butts!

This week Diveplanit is playing host to a group of American dive agents, exploring Far North QLD and the Great Barrier Reef before heading to Fiji. Today we explored the Daintree Rainforest, cruised the Daintree River in search of crocs (found a few bubs), tasted kangaroo and barramundi, licked ant butts, hiked through Mossman Gorge and cooled off in Mossman River. Big day!
