Best Books For Scuba Divers

Always look cool. That’s the first rule of diving as taught to me by my instructor in Australia too many years ago.

When the diver in your life isn’t looking cool in a wetsuit or carrying tanks, help them look cool by reading a great book.

These are some of our favourites, recommended by my husband and I. The only time we ever read the same books, is when they are about scuba diving.

Enjoy!
