Product Description

Part aspirational, part instructional, this title is for competent divers who wish to extend their horizons or push themselves to the limit. Diving with sharks and other adventure dives covers diving with great white, hammerhead and other sharks, cave and wreck diving, and diving in strong currents and under ice. Each chapter is a combination of specialised technical and environmentally aware diving advice, site information and stirring anecdote. The dives featured range from established, accessible schemes such as dolphin dives in the Bahamas to exceptional expeditions such as an unrepeated cave-passage exploration.
