I’ve spent the last eight years working in the diving industry, and my love for the sea has only grown stronger over this time. I first learnt to dive in the beautiful waters of the Maldives, an unforgettable experience that sparked my passion for marine life and underwater exploration.

Over the years, I’ve gained a wealth of knowledge about destinations all around the world, from tropical islands to historic cities, and I'm always happy to pass on insider tips.

Travel has always been a big part of my life, and I take pride in helping others plan their own perfect adventures. Whether it's creating bespoke itineraries or making sure that every detail is just right, I aim to make every trip truly unforgettable. As a Product and Website Specialist at Ultimate Diving, I’m committed to expanding our offerings and ensuring that every guest has everything they need to create memories that will last a lifetime.

My Favourite Places

Recommended

As a big fan of warm water diving, I just love the Red Sea and Maldives. The diversity of marine life found here is amazing, and the magic of being up close with dolphins and turtles is something that stays with you forever. Indonesia is also one of my favourites, with its colourful coral reefs, rare species, and impressive underwater landscapes. Each region offers its own unique charm, and I’m always excited to explore more of what the underwater world has to offer.
To top it off, a great resort where I can relax and watch the sunset is the perfect way to end the day!
