Bluzone is a dive charter / underwater photography operation run by internationally renowned underwater photographer Alex Misiewicz.

Mission Statement
"It is our stated aim to provide an exhilarating and outstanding diving / snorkeling experience unrivalled in it's originality and excellence! "

Alex moved back to his native New Zealand in 2003 after spending many years overseas (based mainly in the UK and Europe) to design and build a fast 12m dive RHIB to explore the offshore islands off Tutukaka, Northland.

During his time overseas he lived in the Egyptian Red Sea on many occasions over an 18 year period and worked as a dive guide, instuctor and even a stint as skipper of the infamous Ghazala 1 liveaboard.

It was also during this time in Sharm El Sheikh in the mid 1980s that he discovered his passion for underwater photography and his camera quickly became his dive buddy. After hundreds of hours spent blowing bubbles his growing library of stunning Red Sea shots eventually lead to commissions from New Holland Publishers to produce images for "Dive Sites of the Red Sea" and "Fishes and Corals of the Red Sea" in the late 90s / early 00s.

Alex has also travelled extensively to all parts of the globe to explore the underwater world and his appetite for adventure has seen him visit the following diving destinations:

Greece

Sardinia and Corsica

Canary Islands

Cape Verde Islands

Cayman Islands

Sri Lanka

Thailand

Indonesia

Great Barrier Reef

Hawaii

Fiji

Tonga

and of course extensively in NZ...

Alex continues to pursue that perfect shot whenever he gets the opportunity and writes freelance for several dive and lifestyle magazines.
