With up to 100 meters of visibility at temperatures of around 1 degree Celsius on average, a dive on Silfra Fissure allows you to submerge between two continents! The tectonic plates of North America and Eurasia are some of the most pristine waters around, and if you get thirsty – just take a sip, the waters are fresh and clean.

4. Take a Jacuzzi under an Active Volcano – Champagne Reef, Sumbawa, Indonesia

Watch as gas bubbles escape from the seafloor, like the bubbles in champagne, in this once in a lifetime dive experience. Situated at the edge of Sangeang Api volcano which recently erupted in May 2014, Champagne Reef hosts a black sand bottom with countless macro life to find, including the rare Wonderpus. Shallow up to 5 meters, and the air vents become abundant and the lava hot water bubble jets act like a Jacuzzi bath.

3. Behold the Underwater Pyramids – Yonaguni, Japan

Host to one of the most disputed discoveries of marine biologists to this date. Yonaguni lies 120km off the southern tip of Ryukyu discovered in 1986. It is thought to be the city of Mu, a fabled civilization, submerged approximately 2,000 years ago. Hammerhead Sharks litter the waters, which are said to be the third clearest in the world.

Though off the beaten track, you can dive komodo all year round to see this amazing mating ritual.
