Afternoon dive at Shark Point, Fulidhoo — surrounded by gentle giants. Dozens of nurse sharks cruising in perfect calm, just doing their thing in the blue. Always surreal how peaceful these moments feel underwater #maldives #sharks #diving #blueplanet #scuba #underwaterphotography

Just did a deep dive on the rarely-known WWII aircraft carrier HMS Hermes. A hauntingly powerful wreck — and made unforgettable by a surprise visit from an oceanic manta ray.

Visited Sudan in 2018—this is Meroë at sunset. More pyramids here than in Egypt, built by the ancient Kingdom of Kush. Quiet, powerful, and full of history.

Took the Seacraft GO for a spin in Musandam, Oman—pure adrenaline! Instead of avoiding currents, we chased them, hunting for the big stuff. DPV diving changes the game—fast, wild, and addictive!
