February 2018 Contents
February is the traditional month of love. Millions across the globe celebrate romance, friendship and admiration on the 14th. Way back when, it was celebrated as a pagan fertility ritual which was later abolished by the Pope in favour of Saint Valentine's Day. Today it is synonymous with the chubby cherub Cupid shooting arrows of love and with a plethora of candy, cards and gifts. So what can Valentine's Day mean for scuba divers who cherish the oceans and sustainability?
During this month of romance, let us inspire you to give the gift of new experiences and shared time with your special loved one in 2018. We include many exciting diving packages to help you find the perfect romantic getaway. You may be bowled over by Mabul Water Bungalows and diving world famous Sipadan (like our colleague Jim). If adrenalin-fuelled dates are more your thing, find out where you can experience exhilarating tiger shark dives.
In this special month we also give you a sneak peak into your friendly Dive The World partners as we celebrate 15 years of being your diving buddies. Pour a cuppa, get comfortable and take some time out to be inspired for your 2018 scuba travel adventures.

New website features
Check out our new and improved liveaboard search feature! The results look different. Now we give you more detail on the boats including key facilities and features. Plus we list the departures within your range of search. We are also adding filters to the search results so you can easily find the features you really want from a liveaboard.
Some of these features are mirrored in our new style of presentation on each liveaboard and resort page. Now you can quickly scan the top of each page and see important information such as: nitrox, Wi-Fi, promotional videos, special offers, our trip reports and some of the most interesting facilities and services in the ‘At a glance’ section.
Our boat schedules have been improved too. You told us you wanted more detail on each specific trip so now we give that to you. Our improved 'More Info' feature now includes more information on the trip highlights, diving environment and detailed day-by-day itinerary. So now you can get much more of a flavour of each cruise before you send your enquiry.
We now accept Bitcoin. It may be having a roller-coaster ride in terms of value right now but crypto-currencies are here to stay. If you want to pay for your scuba diving package iwith Bitcoin - no problem!
