Best of KONNI's DIVING 1995 - 2018

Looking back at more than 20 years of scuba diving in tropical seas as well as the Med, it is difficult to choose the best places and most amazing experiences. There are beautiful pictures in my mind from diving Sodwana Bay and Ponta d'Ouro, the Adriatic Sea and Malta, Comoros, Mauritius and Seychelles. Indeed, I will rely on my photos to remember highlights:
From the teaming fish life in the clear waters of the Northern Red Sea, the wreck of SS Thistlegorm off the Sinai Peninsula in Egypt, via Maldives and Chagos to beautiful dive sites off Pulau Weh, Koh Lipe, Tioman and Sulawesi, as well as to an u/w wedding in Moalboal and relaxed dives off Siquijor and Apo island in the Philippines, to my very first OW dive at "Sodies" in South Africa.
