They then rate the island's diving locations, awarding from 1 to 5 stars, and provide another larger map visually locating the sites. Each site is described in detail, with info on depth, sea life, currents, visibility, photo ops and difficulty level. As if that weren't enough, they include some (but not enough!) beautiful photos, and end each chapter with yet more info on dive operators (detailed), beaches, other activities, dining, accommodations (with rates, addresses and phone numbers), medical facilities, documentation requirements, currency, driving, local customs, departure taxes, etc. I take this compact book with me everywhere.

Book excerpt: Attention Adrenaline Junkies! Does your heart beat a little faster every time you strap on a scuba tank for a dive? Do you feel the excitement as you anticipate the adventure you'll find while scuba diving deep underwater? I do. Come with me while I tell stories of adventures I've had while scuba diving. You'll be by my side when I find my way out of an underwater tunnel and when I dive for lobster off the Mexican coast. You'll feed large fish under Catalina Island's glass bottom boats and duel with three Moray Eels in a cave. Experience the thrill of successfully performing the deepest, heaviest boat salvage using scuba gear and be there when Marlin Perkins escapes from feeding sharks while filming a Wild Kingdom episode. Join me on a dive for treasure and rescue a wallet from a sinking swordfish boat. Imagine the beauty of swimming through a field of Spotted Garden Eels in Tahiti ... and many more diving adventures available to divers just like you and me. I have lived for adventure and chosen my friends for their AQ, not their IQ. That's Adventure Quotient instead of Intelligence Quotient, which is appropriate when talking about us divers. We may not be smart, but we have a lot of fun and are always up for adventure. I've made over 1,100 dives and the stories in this book are the distillation of the most memorable adventures. I hope you enjoy reading them as much as I have recalling and writing them. - Bob
