Description  Frequent diver in San Carlos, Mexico. See: www.SanCarlosDivers.com. I've also been diving a lot in Hawaii, mostly the south shore of Kauai. I love seeing the turtles and sharks there. I had some great dives in (offshore) Texas this past year as well. Other dive spots: Aruba, Australia, Fiji, and South Africa. ZA Rocks! I want to go to Mozambique next, but definitely will go back to South Africa to dive at Aliwal Shoal, which I missed last time. I've put Palau and the Maldives on my future-list as well. Coral reefs, responsible eco-tourism, and shark conservation are my main underwater interests. Some more of my dive pics are at: http://picasaweb.google.com/john85710. I'm pretty active on Facebook, and you can follow me on the micro-blogging service Twitter; @JohnnyScuba
