Scuba Skills

about the author

Alex

Hi, I’m Alex.

I’m the creator of Diving Squad, a scuba diving blog shaped by a five-year odyssey spent drifting through Southeast Asia, Latin America, and elsewhere.

In 2023, I landed in Panglao of the Philippines — and loved it so much I ended up staying! I’ve been based here ever since, working as a PADI Scuba Diving Instructor, whilst continuing to build Diving Squad.

When I’m not in the water, I’m usually editing underwater footage, planning a trip, or cruising around on my bike — but never for long before the reefs pull me back.
