Discover the most beautiful underwater destinations for your photography training.
Las Eras, Radazul Beach and other volcanic underwater landscapes offer unique geological formations and calm bays.
The volcanic underwater landscapes around Tenerife are unique in Europe. Black lava rock, bizarre formations and clear Atlantic water create a backdrop fundamentally different from Caribbean or tropical spots. The south of the island – especially around Las Galletas and Los Abrigos – is known for calm conditions and remarkable wildlife.
Ras Mohamed, St. John's, Brother Islands – some of the world's most spectacular reef landscapes with crystal-clear water and rich biodiversity.
The Red Sea is one of the most species-rich seas in the world and offers ideal conditions for underwater imaging. Ras Mohamed impresses with sheer reef walls and crystal-clear water, while the Brother Islands are famous for spectacular shark encounters. St. John's in the deep south is an insider tip with pristine reefs and a density of big animals rarely found anywhere near Europe.
Princess Alice Bank, Condor Bank and dive spots around Faial & Pico – open ocean reefs with seamounts and dramatic depth breaks.
The Azores are the epicentre of pelagic diving in Europe. Seamounts concentrate nutrients from the open Atlantic and attract ocean wanderers you can hardly see anywhere else. The special part: here you dive with true ocean giants – sperm whales, whale sharks, blue sharks – often with no reef and no bottom in sight, which makes filming a completely different experience.
Hanifaru Bay, South Ari Atoll and Fuvahmulah – legendary dive areas with extraordinary biodiversity and crystal-clear water.
For many, the Maldives are the ultimate dream destination – and for good reason. The South Ari Atoll is home to one of the world's most reliable whale shark populations, while Hanifaru Bay (a biosphere reserve) hosts spectacular manta ray aggregations during the monsoon season. Fuvahmulah is the wildest spot: tiger sharks, tuna and hammerheads on a single dive.
