Common questions about finding dive sites
What is the PickADive dive-sites directory?
The PickADive dive-sites directory is a country and region index for public scuba diving site pages. It helps divers move from broad destination research to individual site details such as location, depth, access, difficulty, reviews, and condition context where available.
How do I find dive sites near me?
Use the PickADive map or search box to look up a city, region, country, or dive-site name. Country and region pages are useful for browsing destinations, while the map is better for comparing nearby sites by location.
What does a PickADive dive-site page include?
A PickADive site page can include a map location, country and region, access type, depth, difficulty, marine life, hazards, photos, reviews, recent condition context, and correction tools. Detail levels vary by site.
Does PickADive include every reef or map marker as a dive site?
No. PickADive is meant to surface useful dive destinations, not inflate counts with every reef, structure, or map marker. A public page should have enough context to help divers research a real dive.
Can PickADive tell me if a dive is safe today?
No. PickADive helps with research and comparison, but it does not certify conditions or make safety decisions for divers. Training, equipment, local operators, current observations, and personal limits still matter.
