Richard Salter is an instructor and dive guide who started diving the Maltese islands in 2004 since when he has amassed over 5000 dives, mostly on Gozo and Comino. After finding accurate information hard to come by and existing publications lacking, he started to draw his own dive sitemaps, so that he could show divers the best places to go, depending on the kind of diving they wished to pursue. He also learned some local history. Now he shares his knowledge so that others can safely enjoy all that Gozo and Comino offer.
