100 Dives of a Lifetime: The World's Ultimate Underwater Destinations (100 of a Lifetime)

100 Dives of a Lifetime is a breathtaking celebration of the underwater world that blends wanderlust, adventure, and environmental appreciation in a way only National Geographic can deliver. Authored by travel writer and diver Carrie Miller, this book curates a global bucket list of scuba dives that range from beginner-friendly coral gardens to extreme, remote sites for advanced divers. The standout feature of this book is, of course, the photography. Each dive site is paired with stunning visuals that transport you beneath the surface, capturing everything from vibrant reef ecosystems to hauntingly beautiful wrecks. It’s a visual feast that will make even landlocked readers dream of the ocean. But it’s not just eye candy. The book offers practical insights about each site—where it is, when to go, what you’ll see, what experience level is needed, and sometimes even conservation concerns. The inclusion of personal stories, quotes from pro divers, and geographic diversity makes this more than just a list—it feels like a journey through Earth’s greatest underwater treasures. What I especially appreciated is the balance. This isn’t just a list of the deepest or most extreme dives; it includes shallow snorkel sites, accessible locations for newer divers, and hidden gems off the beaten path. Whether you’re a seasoned diver planning your next trip, or a dreamer creating a future wish list, this book inspires and informs in equal measure.

My husband is an advanced diver, and I gave this book to him so he would have some inspiration about new places to dive and he loved it

gift for scuba diver

My daughter loved it. I gave this to her for her birthday. Very nice book.

I bought this as a gift for my son who has taken up scuba diving and would like to explore different dive sites around the world. . I expected more of a coffee table book but it was somewhat smaller, but he said the information and pictures were great and just what he was looking for. National geographic is obviously a trusted name which sold me. (Size was listed in the description)

Due to the poor packaging, the books were damaged during transport because the package is significantly larger and the space in between is not filled. In any case, the books are of top quality and I am very satisfied.

Excelente libro, las imágenes hermosas y sobre todo te dice los tips para realizar un buen buceo.

Such a fun book! Bought as a gift and they loved it.

A perfect gift for a recreational scuba diver who wants to travel the world and dive at spectacular locations. Beautiful photos. The dive locations are sorted by 3 difficulty levels. Beginner dives (e.g., Chios Island, Greece), Intermediate dives (e.g., Elphinstone Reef, Egypt) and Advanced dives (e.g., The Devil's Highway, Solomon Islands). ~400 pages, book size ~22 cm x 22 cm. Recommended!

Great book

Awesome collection, great delivery speed across the world in mint conidition, Thank you for the fine book, a must for all ocean lovers. Strongly recommended to purchase from this seller.

Un libro assolutamente da avere per chi è appassionato di diving

Sympa, quelques belles photos mais terriblement USA centrique (Nat Geo oblige). 2 sites pour la France : resurgence en Quercy et.... la Reunion! Les fans des Mousquemers apprécierons. Petit format carré très pratique à feuilleter.
