I'm Ben, and the ocean's had me hooked since my first breath underwater. I go find the best dives on the planet and share all of it — the sharks, the reefs, the silence — so you can feel it too. Restless out of the water? Same. You're among your people here.
Into the depth.
Every country, every hour underwater, and the handful of dives I'd plan a whole trip around.
Where I've dived
Standout dives
Bull Sharks in Mexico
Winter on the Playa del Carmen coast brings the bull sharks in close — big, calm females cruising the sand flats at around 84 feet. Warm water, 100-foot visibility, and a front-row seat as they pass within arm's reach. One of the most jaw-dropping encounters in the Caribbean.

Book me as your videographer
Separate from the planning call above — I dive alongside you and capture it: the reef, the wildlife, and you in the water. You get back edited footage you'll actually want to share.
Dive · Explore · Protect is the whole point, not a tagline. The reefs I film are vanishing faster than most people realize — but the people fixing it already exist: the crews replanting coral reef by reef, and the global push to protect 30% of the ocean by 2030 — which finally has teeth on the high seas, where the High Seas Treaty became law this January. Right now only about 3% of the ocean is strongly protected. What I can add is attention — every dive I share is one more reason to care about the place it came from.
So 100% of the profit from my advice & planning calls goes straight to that work — to the Coral Restoration Foundation in the Florida Keys, who grow and replant reef-building coral by hand. And I point people to the Marine Conservation Institute, who track which marine parks are actually protected and which are just lines on a map — and push for the 30% we are nowhere near.
Lately, on Instagram.
The dives, the gear, and all the sharks, octopus, and healthy reefs we can find.
And lately, on YouTube.
Short cuts from the best encounters — sharks, turtles, and whatever else swims into frame.
