Every year, Scuba Diving magazine's readers vote for the best in dive for the Readers Choice Awards. For the 2019 survey, more than 5,000 divers weighed in on their picks for the world’s best scuba diving, including the best dive destinations, operators, resorts, liveaboards and sites for every level of diver — from beginner to advanced.

The Readers Choice winners were announced in a special issue of the "World's Best Diving Resorts & Liveaboards," and results have been posted to scubadiving.com (see links below).

Scuba Diving's annual Readers Choice survey — now in its 26th year — gives thousands of the magazine's subscribers and online users the chance to voice their opinion on their favorite dive destinations and more. Readers rated their experiences at dive destinations in a variety of categories on a scale from 1 to 5. Final scores are an average of the numerical scores awarded. A minimum number of responses was required for a destination to be included in these ratings.
