Diving in Southeast Asia: A Guide to the Best Sites in Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines and Thailand
Revised by Sarah Ann Wormald, author David Espinosa, Heneage Mitchell, Kal Muller, revised by Sarah Ann Wormald

Well travelled divers all acknowledge that the best diving in the world is found in the warm waters of tropical Asia. No other region on earth presents such a rich variety of marine life, and none can boast as many different types of dive sites: tiny, isolated atolls, World War II wrecks draped in beautiful soft corals, shallow, bommie filled fring fringing reefs and pinnacles, all swarming with fish and vibrant color. 

Diving in Southeast Asia is a comprehensive diving guide covering Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, and Thailand. It presents in great detail the very best dive sites in the tropical western Pacific. Our seasoned diver authors have an aggregate half century of experience exploring these waters, and each site receives thorough coverage, including detailed maps, color photos, and a full description of access, conditions, and facilities. 

"If you're serious about diving in Southeast Asia, then this guide will give you a wealth of country- and region maps, as well as ample details on the underwater topography and marine life you can expect to see." —Marek Bron, Indie Traveller
