Underwater Photography Workshops & Escorted Trips 2013

Liveaboard Diving Safaris with a Difference

Worldwide Dive and Sail and the Siren Fleet have always been keen supporters of underwater photographers and design our liveaboard yachts to accommodate the needs of the underwater photographer and videographer. We continue to sponsor underwater photography competitions including the Alert Diver Ocean Views contest and the NCUPS annual shoot out.

We have had the pleasure of welcoming some renowned names from the world of underwater photography aboard our yachts including Mark Strickland, Aaron Wong, Stephen Frink, Jennie Soriano, Gerald Rambert and Jason Isley.

With compact digital cameras and SLRs being readily available to divers and the wealth of internet resources from sites such as divephotoguide.com, uwpmag.com and uwphotographyguide.com, the demand for u/w photography workshops has increased and for the year 2013 we are planning several workshops 7 escprted trips and we would love for you to join us and see how easy and fun it can be to improve your photography techniques and perhaps join our hosts in becoming an award winning underwater photogrpaher!

We welcome users of both compact digital cameras and digital SLR's aboard each of our yachts, where you will find dedicated preparation areas, plenty of charge points, camera storage areas, dedicated rinse tanks on the dive deck, computers in every cabin to allow you to download and edit your days work and a large plasma screen in the saloon to view and share your days pictures with your fellow guests.

If you would like to join one of the workshops, please
