SCUBA May 2026

In the May issue of iSCUBA, SCUBA celebrates the category winners of this year’s Underwater Photographer of the Year competition, going beyond the stunning visuals to reveal the stories, challenges and moments behind the award-winning images.

The BSAC Awards take centre stage as we bring you a complete rundown of this year’s winners, alongside highlights from BSAC’s presence at the Go Diving Show. Meanwhile, Tim Hughes and fellow members of Thomas Guy SAC step up to a Practical Instructor Exam, sharing their experiences as they strive to turn ambition into reality and become BSAC Instructors.

For those looking to make a difference above and below the surface, The Two Sophies offer practical, must-know advice for anyone planning an underwater litter pick. And in a thought‑provoking read, Yo‑Han Cha asks whether “diving” should be defined purely by time spent underwater, or if it deserves a broader meaning that captures the full scope of our underwater lives.

Plus, enjoy the latest BSAC news, updates from across the diving world, and so much more — all in the May issue of iSCUBA magazine.
