About Scuba Diving Sites 300 Infographic Poster
Scuba Diving Sites 300 is an infographic poster that presents information about dive sites around the world. Three hundred sites were selected from more than 500 researched locations, chosen for being relatively safe and active. The chart format lists the skill level required, the best season for diving, the level of underwater visibility and the maximum dive depth. The poster measures 1050 by 750 millimetres and is produced by offset printing in five colours with matte black ink. The aim is to help divers compare sites and plan dives.

- Design Challenge
- The information required for diving by scuba divers is the proficiency according to the diving site, the best season, the degree of diving visibility, and the maximum depth that can be dived. Such information is individual and subjective. In order to sort out as much accurate information as possible, I searched various Internet information, and for information that was difficult to judge, I received the help of an expert.
- Project Duration
- The project started in August 2022 in Seoul, South Korea, and took about a month.
- Research
- We researched over 500 dive sites for this project, and selected 300 of them. Information on dive sites was obtained through Internet searches, and the data was organized in Excel. The sea surface temperature information utilized the information of World Sea Temperatures, which is updated daily. (www.seatemperature.org / 8th August 2022)
- Inspiration
- It is difficult to scuba dive in Korea because it is cold in winter. So I looked at the map and looked for a warm country where I could dive in winter. But there were many countries I wanted to go to, and as I was organizing the information, I found about 500 fantastic diving spots. I edited 300 of them and ended up making it into an infographic poster.
