Did you know that from October through to January is Leafy Sea Dragon breeding season❓⁠ Remember to be courteous around these unique creatures as they can be easily stressed. If you’re respectful you might be rewarded with seeing their amazing courting dance.⁠ ⁠ During mating season the leafy sea dragons do the mating swagger, swaying their colourful camouflage and weedy-like appendages with their mate. Then when the moment is right, mum passes over hundreds of tiny pink eggs for dad to fertilise and carry on his tail.⁠ ⁠ Dad then incubates the eggs for up to nine weeks. If you spot him with eggs while you’re diving, give him space – it’s a lot of pressure raising children! Plus, only about 20 grow to maturity as they are so tiny and can easily be sucked up by predators – so let’s give these little guys a fighting chance.⁠ ⁠ Source: Department for Environment and Water SA⁠ Photo Credit: 📷 @kerryanneborgula

Have you dived the SS Coolidge❓⁠ Considered by many divers to be the best wreck dive in the world, the SS President Coolidge was a luxury passenger liner converted to a troop carrier during WWII. While entering the Santo harbor she was hit by friendly mines, providing divers with a remarkable underwater playground.⁠ ⁠ ⁠The wreck is covered in coral and is the home to a plethora of sea life including barracuda, lionfish, and a host of reef fish. To see the whole wreck, you’ll need at least 10 to 15 dives as she's 200 metres in length and rests in 20 to 72 metres of water but you will still feel for her magnitude and majesty on even a few dives.⁠ ⁠ With direct flights from Brisbane to Santo, diving this magnificent wreck has never been easier.⁠ ⁠ Special NYE Group Trip for Wreck Diving Lovers 👇️⁠ ⭐Packages from $2,850AUD⭐⁠ ⁠ ⁠Contact us or click on the link in BIO to find out more⁠ ⁠☎️ (02) 9299 4633⁠ 📩 [email protected]⁠ ⁠ Photo credits: Vanuatu Tourism, Pacific Dive,

"Back from an incredible trip to Fiji exploring the reefs at Taveuni and Beqa. It was a first-timer for me and it did not disappoint.⁠ ⁠ Being surrounded by the right people can make or break a trip and I can honestly say that this Fiji 2022 team was superb. ⁠ ⁠ The reefs at Taveuni exude a fragile beauty and the sharks at Beqa proved that these animals are complex individuals and not just wild beasts. ⁠ ⁠ Thanks to all that made this trip possible."⁠ ⁠ Reposted from 📷 @vanessa_torres_macho
