Hi All,
I'm going to be travelling around Indo for 2 months from July. I'm starting in Pulau Wei and then heading East towards Komodo, going up to Banda/Spice Islands and then onto Sulawesi and Borneo.
As my total trip will probably be 6 months with 2 months in Indo, I'm thinking I'll do land dives instead of liveaboards due to the cost - want to make my money last but also dive!! I want to dive at least once in each of the locations.
What are the MUST do dive sites, preferably from land? Komodo is a must, it'll be from land though (I know liveaboard is best). Primarily looking for big pelagic like mantas, sharks etc... but will want to mix it up too.
Also, would I really need to take my 3mm full wetsuit? Due to bulk and weight, is it really necessary in Indo - is it warm enough to dive in shorts and tee? Or just rent will be easier.
I'll be taking my reg, mask, and travel BC (when I buy it).
Cheers
