This week I taught our Kids Kamp Advanced group - Introduction to Coral Reef program. SOO MUCH FUN! This group of 12-15 yr olds got to learn all about how coral reefs are formed, there importance, associated eco systems, and how species interact on the reef. Of course...

 With a couple of adventurous buddy's, we decided to go out and pin point the location of the WE shipwreck. Armed with a set of GPS co-ordinates we anchored on the sand at the top off the reef and dropped in, uncertain if we would find it. As luck would have it we were...

 What a great week it has been here in the beautiful Turks and Caicos. Finally we got permission to be able to go out and treat the corals that are infected with SCTLD. Using a paste base and amoxicillin mixture, our mission was to identify and treat coral colonies tha...

Today, as I was having lunch, this little Seno...

Here is a clip of that beautiful summer day off Collingwood filming the Mary Ward shipwreck. Part of a local historical awareness program, I got to use 360 cameras and be the dive model. This teaser trailer is just a snapshot of that underwater filming day and an insig...

 One of my all time favourite animals that can be found on a tropical reef is the Hawksbill Turtle. These guys get so engrossed in there favourite food, sponges, that they don't mind divers approaching them. This one was so comfortable with us that she actually came ri...

Each year, as May arrives, we begin our transition from our tropical (Caribbean) home to our summer dive training location on Georgian Bay. This year is very different. For obvious reasons
