Diving
Diving is where my travel writing began, and as a certified diver I’ve logged dives across dozens of the 135 countries I’ve explored. This category reviews liveaboards, dive resorts, and individual dive sites based on visibility, marine life, operator safety standards, and crew expertise I’ve experienced firsthand. I write for divers who want honest detail on currents, boat quality, and what’s actually below the surface, not just brochure promises. Whether you’re chasing mantas or wrecks, these reviews are built from logged dives, not secondhand reports. Represent a dive operator, liveaboard, or resort? See how I review or work with me.
