With so many amazing images sent in, it was very hard to pick a winner.

A photo speaks a thousand words. Our seas and the creatures within them are continually hammered by poor environmental practices such as trawling and dredging. By sharing your beautiful images, you are showing others the value of our oceans, and teaching them how wonderful our marine environment is. It is important that we look after it for the generations to follow. 
Dive Pacific and NZUA would like to thank you all for your support.
More images will be available on our Facebook page soon.

An honorable mention goes to Olivia Fraser, for this great under/over image of the Emerald Cave Goat Island as a freediver emerges from the cave after some exploration underwater. These split images are not easy to achieve.
