    Maldives - late October

    Staying in India I am indeed familiar with monsoon! Though I have stayed in Bombay and Bangalore and monsoons are very different in various parts of the country.

    Thanks Valyngar, keep us posted on your Mauritius trip. Would be great to compare the two destinations in terms of diving at the present! Was there significant coral bleaching in Seychelles?

    Where to Dive - Feb 2019

    Woah! I actually returned from Thailand after doing most of my diving from Ao Nang with Poseidon and The Dive Ao Nang - both operators good.
