Underwater Festival 2010

Dive Christmas Island – The 4th annual Underwater Festival will be held from Saturday the 24th to Friday the 30th of April 2010 on Christmas Island in the Indian Ocean.
For last years results check out the winning photos and videos of the underwater photo shoot-out competition from 2009 in Byron Bay, the most easterly point of the Australian mainland.
There are full archive websites for the 2007, the 2008 and the 2009 festivals.

Why Christmas Island ?
Christmas Island diving is endless kilometres of spectacular wall diving, untouched corals, undersea caves, hundreds of species of tropical fish, dolphins, whalesharks, and warm clear water. Truly a dive destination that has it all.
