Diving with Giants features the best places in the world’s oceans and seas to dive with pelagic species. ‘Pelagic’ is a real buzz word for divers, and refers to the big, fast creatures of the open waters. This includes sharks, manta rays , dolphins, whales, barracuda, and so on.
The book is strongly destination-driven, but themed around
pelagic creatures. Thus, the Atlantic section includes, for example, diving with great white sharks off South Africa’s Cape coast; the Red Sea features diving with dolphins, numerous shark species and whale sharks off Djibouti; the Indian Ocean features diving with manta rays in the Maldives, barracuda and tuna in southern Thai marine parks, and whale sharks off the Seychelles and Western Australia; the Pacific includes diving with sharks, pilot whales and
rays off Malaysia; hammerhead sharks, greytip and whitetip reef sharks off Indonesia; manta rays off the Philippines; and the Caribbean features plenty of ray and shark action.
