Most divers want to dive with a dive buddy.
ScubaBoard.com’s new BuddyMatrix makes it easy for members to locate each other by either using their US Zip code, or Latitude/Longitude Coordinates (for non-US residents).
Not only does the BuddyMatrix allow search by distance, but it also lets the user specify several criteria if they choose.
Users can specify that they want to find Instructors, Dive Shops, Dive Operations, and more. What makes the buddymatrix even more fun and user friendly, is that the results are listed on a “Google Map”! This feature is free for everyone to use, but only members can be listed.
So if you’re not yet a member, head over to ScubaBoard.com and register (for free) for ScubaBoard and the BuddyMatrix today.

ScubaBoard Who's been to Fiji? Advice needed
First impression, I was stunned with the wealth of hard coral, like no El Nino and no global warmth had ever impacted the area. especially on the outer side of the Great Astrolabe, spots like "Fish Market" are a maze of large acroporas, table, elkhorn, lettuce, fire, brain, any-hard-coral-you-name-it corals.
My special attention goes to Purple Wall a drifting wall dive on the sides of Naiqoro passage, covered with mainly purple soft coral, but also all sorts of tones ranging from white to bright orangy or deep red soft corals.
On every dive we had either whitetip or grey reef sharks sights, on one dive, a spotted eagle ray passing into the blue.
