Tucked into cracks and overhangs, often in small groups, you’ll spot a flash of red — Apogon imberbis, the cardinal fish. It’s one of the few genuinely red species you’ll find in these waters, with oversized eyes built for a life spent mostly in the dark. By day it hides away in caves and crevices, coming out at night to hunt small invertebrates and plankton. Between June and September, keep an eye out for males carrying a ball of fertilised eggs in their mouths, brooding them until they hatch. 🐠🌙

This is where I get to work every day, and I genuinely think it shows. Calero Diving is based in Puerto Calero marina, with direct access to some of the best diving on the island. Clean facilities, a state of the art compressor, a digital learning room, and a team that never rushes you — because good diving starts before you hit the water. Full tech and CCR support for those who want to go further. Come and see for yourself.

This is not a sponsored post, I am just truly happy with this dive computer and sharing my thoughts on it.

Halcyon’s Symbios Handheld isn’t just a dive computer — it’s the start of an integrated system designed around how technical divers actually work underwater. From the ZHL16-C algorithm and full GF chart to wireless Tankpod integration and multi-mode support, it covers everything from recreational dives to complex CCR deco profiles. Configuration happens through the mobile app before you even get wet, including dive simulations and failure scenarios. Worth a proper look if you’re thinking about your next computer upgrade.

Your dive computer is tracking your nitrogen loading in real time, warning you about ascent rate, and telling you how long you have left at depth. None of that matters if you don’t know how to read it. One of the most consistent things I see as an instructor is divers who own perfectly good computers and use them as expensive depth gauges. Learn the device before you trust your safety to it.

The ocean doesn’t ask anything of you. It just pulls you in and shows you something extraordinary. Every single dive.

Six wrecks. One dive. 15–40 m depth range.
The Harbour Wrecks just outside Puerto del Carmen’s old harbour are one of Lanzarote’s most distinctive sites — old fishing boats deliberately sunk in the 70s and 80s, now colonised by scorpionfish, cardinalfish, and morays. Start deep, work your way up, and finish your safety stop on the shallowest wreck — which is literally built into the harbour wall. Keep an eye on the sand: angel sharks and rays are regulars here.

The dive industry spends a lot of time talking about equipment, and not nearly enough talking about the diver inside it. Your physical condition — how well you sleep, how you eat, whether you smoke or drink — has a direct impact on your safety underwater. No upgrade to your gear fixes a body that isn’t ready to dive. Take care of yourself first.

Recently I shared 3 books that I think every diver should read.
I have 3 more recommendations and 1 BONUS one for 🇩🇪 speakers.|

1/ Staying Alive by Steve Lewis
The title says it all. Steve Lewis is a veteran explorer who has seen the best and worst of tech diving. This isn’t a textbook about math or physics; it’s a masterclass in risk management, discipline, and eliminating ego. Lewis breaks down the exact habits, mental checklists, and safety protocols that keep advanced divers alive in extreme environments. If you want to dive deep and live to tell the tale, put this on your shelf immediately.

2/ The Last Dive by Bernie Chowdhury
This isn’t a textbook—it’s a haunting true story that every tech diver should read as a sobering reality check. It chronicles the tragic journey of Chris and Chrissy Rouse, a talented father-and-son duo obsessed with exploring deep Atlantic shipwrecks. Chowdhury brilliantly captures the thrill of early tech exploration while laying bare the psychological traps—ego, obsession, and complacency—that can turn a standard dive into a fight for survival. It’s a powerful reminder of exactly why we follow the rules we do today.

3/ The Six Skills by Steve Lewis
Before you strap on extra tanks or buy a rebreather, you need to master the fundamentals. In this book, Steve Lewis strips tech diving down to its core mechanics: buoyancy, trim, propulsion, situational awareness, equipment configuration, and team skills. It is packed with creative, real-world solutions and specific drills designed to turn sloppy recreational habits into rock-solid technical precision. If you want to look and feel completely weightless and in control underwater, start here.
