Scuba Diving Fakarava North Pass (Don’t Dive Unless You Like Sharks!)

By Russell BowyerPosted in Liveaboard, Scuba TravelTagged Diving Fakarava North Channel, Diving Fakarava North PassNo Comments

Diving Fakarava North Pass is an almost guarantee to see sharks. It’s mostly done as a drift dive in sometimes strong currents. But as dives go, it’s got to be one of the top dive sites around the world due to the abundance of sea life and sites of beautiful healthy coral gardens.

I’m the diver behind Scuba Diving Earth. My first dive was on the Great Barrier Reef in 1989 and since then I’ve dived hundreds of times around the world. I’m a BSAC Dive Leader, have been a BSAC diver trainer and the Diving Officer of a Saffron Walden BSAC Club. I live in the UK near to the New Forest in Hampshire with my lovely wife Jo. I enjoy scuba diving around the world, but now mostly in the warm tropical waters of the Caribbean. I have a love of diving where I can see sharks. My favourite so far was seeing Whale Sharks on the Ningaloo Reef in Australia.
