Hey scuba divers! 👋

Someone has just set up a group for scuba diving discussion at:

➡️ @scubadivers

I had a request from @tinca_tinca to feature the group as they want to get a diving community established here on the Fediverse 🙂 They will be posting in the group from time to time, and everyone is free to join in too.

(If you're unsure how groups work, there's a guide here: https://fedi.tips/how-to-use-groups-on-the-fediverse/)

Exploring the Diverse Underwater World of Mozambique

During a two-week diving adventure off the coast of Tofo Beach in Mozambique, I immersed myself in its vibrant underwater world almost every day. Over the course of about 22 dives, each descent revealed something new— from tiny reef dwellers to larger pelagic visitors. The marine biodiversity of Tofo Beach makes every dive feel distinct, offering moments that stay with you long after surfacing.

Here’s a clip of a diver observing the graceful movements of a jellyfish off the coast of Tofo Beach. These translucent drifters pulse gently through the water, their tentacles trailing like ribbons of light. Watching them up close is mesmerizing—an intimate glimpse into the fragile beauty and balance of ocean life.

In this clip, a new diver practices deploying a surface marker buoy during a training dive off Tofo Beach, Mozambique. The sequence captures both focus and excitement as he refines this essential safety skill. Moments like these highlight the learning that continues long after certification—each dive reinforcing confidence, awareness, and respect for the underwater environment.

The final clip features a diver encountering a sea salp—a translucent, chain-forming drifter that moves with quiet rhythm through the water. Its pulsing motion adds a dreamlike quality to the dive, a reminder of how much life exists beyond the reef. Moments like this reveal the extraordinary biodiversity found off Mozambique’s coast, where even the smallest creatures offer a glimpse into the ocean’s complexity.

Thanks to the dive guides at Liquid Dive Adventures in Mozambique.

I shot the above video with a Panasonic GH5 in a Nauticam underwater housing and wet wide angle lens. Here’s a link to my underwater camera set-up.

Scuba Divers in Grenada

Another year of bubbles and breathtaking underwater encounters!

Okay, I admit it, I broke protocol in Grenada. Usually, my camera craves solitude with coral and critters. But something about the vibrant life and joyful exploration there made me snap a few fellow divers, too! I mean, how could you resist capturing pure underwater glee?
