WE SHARE OUR LOVE FOR THE UNDERWATER WORLD
Our love for the underwater world and scuba diving inspired us to create DIVELOG. A dynamic medium that allows us to share diving spots, experiences and information that can help divers to safely plan and enjoy their dive. By uploading our dives to DIVELOG, we want to share information with the rest of the diving community, always protecting marine life as well as our cultural heritage.
With the help of the map below we can plan with precision our next dive while at the same time all divers can contribute to the creation of the most up-to-date diving community by adding their dive to the map.
