By Nigel Marsh and Helen Rose - Rolling over the side of the boat we were astonished to find the visibility close to 40m. Below we could see an interesting terrain of rock and coral, numerous fishes, and something very special – eight Galapagos sharks. As we descended the sharks slowly patrolled around us and throughout the dive they cruised overhead. It was great to see these special sharks that are only seen at a few locations. However, they were not the only special and unique fishes we saw during our visit to Norfolk Island. Read MORE
By KEN HOPPEN - Wolf Rock has to be the most adventurous dive on the east coast of Australia. And possibly a lot further afield than that.It’s not for the faint of heart, though the rewards are there for those who manage to get there. Located off Rainbow Beach in the southern section of Queensland, Rainbow Beach is just to the north of the Great Sandy National Park, and just to the south of K’gari, formally known as Fraser Island. About a three-hour drive north of Brisbane (Queensland, Australia), it’s a beautiful little holiday town, right on the beach and close to many interesting things: one dive in particular. SEE MORE
By MIKE SCOTLAND - Hawkfish are ambush predators that like to live in shallow coral and rocky reefs. They have large eyes and lie in wait for tiny fish and crustaceans to eat. They like to sit high on large pectoral fins surveying their territory. Some species have tufts on the tips of the spines on the dorsal fin that resemble soft coral polyps. Australia has the unfortunate history of having the world’s highest rate of mammalian extinctions of any continent on our planet. The story for the sea is not great either. Our depleted fisheries are only a fraction of their former size, not much to be proud of. Sea Grass beds for example have been reduced to half of their former area by construction and poor fishing techniques. As a result, only about fifty per cent of fish that could potentially breed can breed. READ MORE

Hi Dive Log, A friend of mine, Peter said he has found the articles and classified ads in Dive Log extremely useful in helping him to plan dive trips and to hire dive services during his local and overseas travels. He believes loyal readers of Dive Log would be happy to donate to the magazine to show their support. It was so encouraging to hear his feedback and to know that there are readers who love and believe in this longstanding publication and want to see it continue to thrive long into the future just as much as I do, especially now as the wondrous world of diving seems to finally be opening up again. Love and bubbles, PT
