James did his OW in Spain as a wee child and then forgot about diving for many years before picking it back up again in 2021 with an adventurous, keen, newly qualified friend. Since then he's been diving regularly around Melbourne and whenever the opportunity strikes abroad. 

His favourite thing about diving is the peace and quiet and discovering an alien world underwater. He did his DM course to be a better dive buddy and help others.

Favourite local spot: Rye Pier (especially at night)

Favourite international dive spot: Gato Island, Philippines.
