More than 300 spectacular underwater photographs
A grading system ranging from beginner to expert
Authoritative diving notes from experts
Support facilities such as dive centers, hospitals and recompression chambers
Important safety information for each site
Practical travel advice: how to get there, visa requirements, equipment availability.
