Check availabilityOpen shop dashboard

Destination already filled? You can still get on the map with a Standard Dive Shop Account.

Check destination availability

Open slots are available. Reserved means a shop has purchased the period. Filled means the period is unavailable.

What Featured Destination Placement includes

A clearly labeled sponsored placement. Payment never changes Destination Pulse, organic operator order, reviews, or editorial content.

Buy this if you already operate in the destination and want sponsored exposure while divers research it

  • You have a claimed, published DiveJourney shop profile.
  • You operate in the destination being purchased.
  • You want sponsored featured placement, not an editorial endorsement.
  • You can receive booking, WhatsApp, website, or inquiry leads directly.

Buy Featured Destination Placement from your shop dashboard

New unpaid Destination Partner recruitment is paused. Claimed shops can buy an available 90-day sponsored placement from the shop dashboard. Existing partner commitments stay in place through their promised end date.

Sponsored placement
  • Featured Destination Partner on the destination guide
  • Existing destination and spot exposure from the current placement system
  • Clearly labeled Sponsored rendering, separate from organic operators
Direct commercial CTA
  • Primary action uses your booking URL, WhatsApp, website, or DiveJourney inquiry route
  • 0% DiveJourney commission on direct operator leads
  • No booking engine and no Member Offers dependency
Reporting
  • Destination demand context where Pulse is published
  • Placement exposure for the sponsored unit
  • Direct commercial actions attributable to the placement

What this is not

Paid placement is optional distribution. Existing unpaid partner commitments stay in place through their promised end date.

Not an endorsement
  • We do not call the buyer the best, recommended, or exclusive operator in the destination
Not a plan upgrade
  • Free shops can buy placement without Plus or Pro. Plus/Pro remains a separate optional subscription
