What are the best dive sites in the world? After diving globally for decades, Freddy shares his favorite dive sites and top dive destinations — including Raja Ampat, Palau, and Fiji — plus one place he recommends avoiding.
From the legendary Blue Corner in Palau to manta-filled Magic Mountain in Raja Ampat and the vibrant reefs of Fiji’s Mellow Yellow, these sites stand out for biodiversity, untouched beauty, and unforgettable underwater encounters . Freddy also explains why Raja Ampat feels like “the real Jurassic Park” and why it remains his favorite overall dive destination.
But not every location lives up to the hype. In this candid discussion, Freddy also shares his least favorite dive location — and why heavy tourism and environmental impact have dramatically changed it .
If you're planning a scuba diving trip and building your bucket list, this video will help you prioritize destinations that still deliver world-class diving.
