Caribbean: The Secrets of the Sea

White Star Editions

Thousands of multicoloured fish flock around the diver, surprised, almost overwhelmed by the amazing kaleidoscope of colors swimming around the walls of the reef. But the Caribbean can also be the scene of emotional encounters with larger and fearsome pelagic fish. Kurt Amsler's splendid photography and narrative take the reader on an unforgettable voyage through the secrets of the Caribbean underwater universe, including a meeting with the dolphins of Bahama Bank, another with the rays of Stingray City, a dive into the mysterious Blue Hole of Belize, and a visit to the naval "cemetery" of Saint-Pierre in Martinique.
