The beady eyes of a bass making a freshwater splash in @killbearpp! With a toddler and a new baby in our household, it's been a hot minute since our last dive adventure.

Meet our little shark Elliot André Frank Postma b

Meet our little shark Elliot André Frank Postma born on Christmas Day! Much like sharks, who have survived and thrived for longer than dinosaurs, Elliot’s story is one of survival when he was born 3 months early at 2lb 9oz.

This winter has presented us with some of the hardest challenges of our lives and we are happy to slowly be coming out the other side. Events such as this put into perspective how quickly life can change and what a gift it is to have a healthy and happy baby.

[#ad] In the vast sea of literature available in this day and age, All About Fish and Fellows emerges as a quick science-related read, offering refreshing tales from the ocean while touching on the complexities of marine science. As someone with a background in marine biology, I found myself delightfully submerged in the depths of this small but mighty book, where every page revealed new insights and sparked the gears of my intellect. #divebuddies4life #scubabook #oceanlitteracy #scubadiving #underwaterstories

If you are looking for ways to do less while scuba

If you are looking for ways to do less while scuba diving but cover more ground, the revving motor of an underwater scooter is probably the first thing that comes to mind. [#ad] Underwater scooters can be a fast and fun mode of transportation—as long as you’re riding safely, comfortably and considerately. This summer we were lucky enough to zoom around on the @asiwo_sports Manta Scooter in one of the local lakes!
