]]> Perched on the border between Asia and Africa and known as Egypt’s paradise, the Sinai peninsula is a fantastic place to relax. Rather than the busy, touristy Sharm El Sheikh, head to the quieter resorts of Dahab, Nuweiba and Taba. Here you can stay in simple, beachside accommodation and spend your days snorkelling, sunbathing and chilling the heck out!

Stay in a Husha

Hushas are small traditional Bedouin huts that are the main accommodation option in Sinai if you’re not heading to a luxury resort. Usually made of bamboo or other natural materials, hushas allow you to get back to nature, unplug and switch off. Fall asleep to the sound of the waves, and open the door in the morning to watch the sunrise over the Red Sea.

Chill Out

Sinai is a perfect holiday destination for folks who need some serious relaxation. With a slow, easy pace of life, plenty of opportunities for chilling, as well as a number of yoga and meditation retreats to choose from, you will return from Sinai feeling recharged.

Diving and Snorkelling

Sinai has long been prized by divers and snorkelling enthusiasts as a dream destination. Here you can get up close to amazing marine life, wrecks, caves and stunning coral reefs. There are lots of diving schools where you can take lessons, guided tours and hire equipment.

]]> If you love spending time splashing about in the water discovering the world’s marine life, the Maldives is the place for you. It has plenty of diving spots that offer a rich variety of experiences.

Alimatha Jetty

This is a great location for beginners to get up close and personal with a variety of sharks. It is especially good if you go for a night dive. You are likely to find Nurse sharks and marble rays that weave around you as you watch.

Banana Reef

This is a great introduction to what the Maldives marine life has to offer. Available to all swimming levels, it affords beautiful views of caves, coral, and mighty colorful schools of fish.

Manta Point

Divers from around the world flock to this spot to watch the giant rays, sharks, tuna, and the submerged island they swim around.

Kuda Giri Wreck

This old metal shipwreck is now home to a thriving community of wildlife. The dive is suitable for beginners, and you can see plenty of glassfish, frogfish, and batfish.

Maaya Thila

One of the most popular diving sites in the world, here you can see glorious sights of the reef, turtles, and sharks.

]]> It’s pretty hard to find untouched islands these days. In the 1960s and 1970s, Southeast Asia was discovered by backpackers following the Hippie Trail, and those areas are still well-traveled to this day. However, if you’re looking for an island paradise that few travelers visit, you should consider booking a trip to the Cook Islands. 

The Cook Islands are a small nation comprised of 15 islands in the south pacific. The biggest island is Rarotonga, and typically where travelers fly in to. The entire region is dotted with stunning coral reefs and rare marine life that has largely remained untouched. Due to this, avid divers and snorkelers try to make their way here at least once in their lifetimes. 

Getting Here

Rarotonga is not an easy place to get to, as only four airlines fly into the small airport. If you want to visit, you can find flights on Air New Zealand, Air Tahiti, Jetstar, and Virgin Australia. Alternatively, if you’re feeling adventurous you can hop on a sailboat and sail to the islands. 

Where To Stay

While you can stay on Rarotonga, a trip to Aitutaki Island is a must. The Pacific Resort Aitutaki is a favorite with travelers looking to get away from the world and enjoy the idyllic jungles and volcanic formations on the island.

]]> One of the coolest things about scuba diving as a hobby is it pairs so well with travel—taking you to all sorts of exotic and beautiful locations and allowing you to get to know the local flora and fauna. Here are just some locations you may want to take your scuba gear to.

Barracuda Point

Located in Malaysia, Barracuda Point is full of diverse life—including white tips, turtles, grouper, jacks, bumphead parrotfish, and barracuda. If you’ve ever wanted to dive with sharks, this is the place to do it.

Blue Corner

If you like a challenge, Blue Corner in Micronesia has strong currents, making it popular with more experienced divers. You’ll be able to see everything from sharks to coral reefs to pelagics.

The Yongala

In the heart of Queensland, Australia, the Yongala is a huge shipwreck protected by the Historic Shipwrecks Act. In addition to offering the breathtaking sight of a shipwreck, it has stunning coral, sea snakes, octopuses, turtles, bull sharks, and tiger sharks.

Manta Ray Night Dive

If you want to try a night dive, this is the place to do it. It’s in Kailua Kona, Hawaii and pretty much guarantees you’ll be able to see manta rays. With underwater lights on the ocean floor, this dive is completely unforgettable.

]]> The underwater world is a completely different realm on its own. It’s filled with colorful sea creatures, different kinds of corals and the deepest shades of blue. Whether you’re a first-timer or an advanced diver, these places are certainly a must-see.

The Egyptian Red Sea

Grab your diving gear and jump into the Egyptian red sea. Who knows what kind of beautiful sea creatures you’ll encounter? This Hawksbill Sea Turtle is one of the most endangered sea creatures out there, so make sure when you see one next time to savor the moment. Let’s hope that they’ll multiply soon and become less endangered.

Mabini Batangas

Mabini in Batangas is located in the Philippines. This place was named after Apolonario Mabini, a revered Filipino revolutionary hero. It’s no surprise that the Philippines possesses some of the best diverse aquatic wildlife and pristine oceans. We highly encourage diving in the tropics at least once in your life. Chill by the beach with a coconut after to load up on electrolytes and energy.

See the Manta Rays in Myanmar

Myanmar (formerly known as Burma) is home to about 100 ethnic groups and has a bustling and progressive city life with a balance of picturesque nature sites. Try diving with the manta rays in crystal clear waters in Myanmar.
