Do more people use hootsuite for prescheduling Ins Do more people use hootsuite for prescheduling Instagram posts? I do because I receive quite some visitors through Social Media.  I choose some pics to promote new posts and schedule them a couple of weeks ahead. Like this one: this can be your water bungalow for a diving holiday on the Maldives. Post on splashpacker 🙂

New post on Splashpacker! Veligandu Island Resort, New post on Splashpacker! Veligandu Island Resort, the dream destination for a luxury scuba dive holiday! Usually, I focus on destinations and accommodation on a lower buget, however, I kind of got invited to return for a visit to Veligandu. The island is a true paradise with amazing scuba diving at a stone´s throw away, so I included it on Splashpacker. They are open and a safe destination during Covid-19.  Here is the link for Facebook redirect, or copy & paste for Instagram:

Seahorse during scuba diving the crosses at the ca Seahorse during scuba diving the crosses at the canary island La Palma. More information about travelling all Canary Islands including the best places to go scuba diving and where to see will follow on Splashpacker. There are shipwrecks around the islands, the usual Atlanic Ocean sealife, an underwater museum in Lanzarote, the cross dive in La Palma, Lobos island on Fuerteventura and very unspoiled diving on El Hierro. Not to name the more complete islands of Gran Canaria and Tenerife with marine parks and more wrecks!

Was hoping to see a seal whilst scuba diving on Ma Was hoping to see a seal whilst scuba diving on Madeira Island, but unfortunately I didn´t. Nevertheless I saw this seal on the wall in Camara de Lobos. So still got my seal picture. Hopefully I will be back one day to dive the desert islands and spot a real seal down there <3

The Canary island of El Hierro is super green and The Canary island of El Hierro is super green and self sustainable with 100% renewable energy, like wind energy! The island clean, quiet, full of nature and filled with the most friendly people!

It's also the place with one of the best scuba diving of the Canary Islands. I lived in La Restinga for a couple of months and the diving there is absolutely amazing! Next to diving, the island is nice for hiking, to spot the smallest museum in the world and to see this Juniper tree 🙂 Amongst other things.

I´m working on a post about all the Canary Islands and what to find on each island. Keep an eye on splashpacker.
