This event has been arranged for underwater photographers by photographers and we have selected the best for your cameras which the Red Sea offers once a year only.
Since five years the annual DIGIDEEP-Tour at Ras Mohammed national park is legendary.
Starting last year we are organizing a live-shoot-out, where you can win interesting prizes about 800 Euro, real values and cash also. The boat is in excellent technical condition, number of participants is 14 instead of 18 to provide a maximum of space and comfort aboard and at the reef.
Invitation
Follow us to places where thousands of fish are mating every year and enjoy walls of snappers, batfish and surgeonfishes sometimes parted by a shark. Our experienced team and the luxurious boat are guarantees against 'mass diving'. Even guests already diving in Sharm El Sheikh returned impressed from the tour.
Important information:
Every diver is rated by his skills, we are sorry to say that beginners are not admitted. You should at least have logged 30 dives
and your diving level should be AOWD or CMAS**. You can absolve a nitrox brevet or a structured course for underwater photography if not yet existent . Usually every participant has his own camera.

The dive festival is already over since a while, but we don't want to miss the chance to say thank you to everybody who helped organizing and realizing the Curacao Dive Festival 2008. We came home with many great memories and new friends. We have put together a summary with all the articles about this years festival and the dates for next year – hope to see you there.
Diving like in a supermarket – this is how you could discribe the fish pooll at Animal Encounters in the Sea Aquarium Curacao. In the little bay you can find stingrays, tarpons, goliath grouper and many more. The animals have ample space and are very friendly. Read on for pictures and review ...
The Habitat Curaçao is situated on the southern part of the island and the resort is build isolated into a little bay. Even though it is far from the main hotel area, it suprises with its high standard. A nice Pool area, good design and a wonderful dive base with a very interesting housereef.
Curacao's biggest Wreck lays in a depth of 30 meters, is about 50 meters long and wrecked so close to the island, that you actually can dive it by shore. It basically sunk just in front of the safe harbor and today it is one of Curacao's best divesites. We had two excellent dives on the wreck – read on for the review and some pictures.
As mentioned before, the western part of Curacao is much more calm and relaxed than the eastern part, where the capital and most hotels are. However, we had some of the best dives in the western area. Ocean Encounters West offers boat dives in that area and we joined them to the three Top Spots of the area: Watamula, Airplane Wreck and Mushroom Forest. Read on for a little review and some pictures.
