Synopsis
The Red Sea, the Mediterranean Sea, Polynesia, the Caribbean, the Great Barrier Reef and the Florida Keys: this volume presents the extraordinary and surprising richness of these underwater paradises in an elegant pictorial layout. The sites are described by professional divers of international renown, and illustrated with spectacular photographs. Three-dimensional reconstructions help the reader to follow the many underwater itineraries. This book is a perfect manual for both professional and amateur divers, for all those fascinated by the depths of the sea and who want to discover its secret treasures.
Customer Reviews
A re-hash of Best Dive Sites of the World.
Previously published under the title "Best Dive Sites of the World," this book is a rehash of old and tired material.
These publishers have a reputation for repeating information from one book to another without any thought given to the person who might buy their products.
There are several books currently available claiming to show the "top" or "best" dive sites of the world and this is a very poor attempt to compete by using a collection of whatever material was available in order to add something on the same theme. What a pity they did not read previous criticisms and "then" go out and find something new.
Even the front cover photograph is taken from "The Maldives Diving Guide" which was published over 12 years ago!
Quite frankly, my dear, I don't think they don't give a damn!
