The Dive Spot to accommodate both training and his mission to dive all the dive spots in southern Africa. In 2008 he completed his journey and personally dived all the dive spots featured in this book. Johan has been
involved with a number of underwater television documentaries for local and international filming crews and is also an accomplished underwater photographer. In Addition, he took over the editorship of the
local diving magazine, Divestyle, in 2005.

Amilda Boshoff is a qualified ICU Nursing Sister who has always loved the ocean and all the beautiful creatures in it. During one of her diving courses she went on a trip to Sodwana where she accidentally became caught in Johan’s buoy line. A year later they got married on a rubber duck at exactly the same spot where they had met. She then obtained her instructors qualification and accompanied Johan on the journeys
to the dive sites of southern Africa, helping to compile the Marine Life educational CD. She is a freelance journalist and an accomplished underwater photographer.
