Destination Inspiration - Diving Ideas for August
 
Cayman Islands
For an upmarket dive destination visit Grand Cayman with its crystal clear, warm waters and around 60 miles of drop-offs. One of the best locations in the world for wall diving with over 100 named wall sites. As one of our reviewers said: "...schools of Tarpon move through water as clear as vodka." But maybe he'd just had too much "water" the night before.
 
Truk, Federated States of Micronesia
Truk is a wreck divers paradise. Impressive remains of nearly 70 Japanese ships and countless aircraft that were condemned to watery graves by U.S. Naval air attacks in World War II. Now lying scattered on the floor of Truk's huge lagoon, they are covered in coral forming amazing artificial reefs.
 
New Ireland, Papua New Guinea
Dive the reefs of Kavieng, off the island of New Ireland, famous for its fascinating WWII shipwrecks, downed aircraft and sharks. Diving here is spectacular but only recommended for the experienced.
 
Sipidan, Malaysia
Dive in the seas around Sipidan, east of Sabah, and expect to see Green turtles, Mantas, White Tipped sharks, Parrot fish and Puffer fish.
