My Review:
100 Dives of a Lifetime talked about 100 dives, mostly beginner or intermediate skill, but also some expert dives. They range from reef dives to wrecks, canyons, and caves. There were lovely photos--usually one per dive, but sometimes several for one area. Each suggested dive area was described plus it had information about what you'll see, water temperature, visibility, and depth.


If you've read this book, what do you think about it? I'd be honored if you wrote your own opinion of the book in the comments.
