Second the top comment if you want pretty inexpensive and warm water a tour of Bali maybe worth while and that time of year is still Mola Mola season though it won’t be crowd free. In a month you could pretty much cover all the main parts from Menjangen Island (which will be crowd free) to...

It was 2018 so will I am sure have gone up, back then it was about £1,200 which was 7 days B&B plus 10 dives and 2 snorkel trips. From memory flights from Jo.burgh were £7-800 return. There are some wonderful walks and history to see on the island too from especially from the time Napoleon was...

Anthony if he is still going here. Contact | St Helena | Sub-Tropic Adventures I stayed here - Colin and Marlene are lovely, Town House – St Helena Tourism if you want a more upmarket venue the only option is the Mantis

Tigers do turn up from time to time here, 10 -15 metres away and 3 metres long. The Galapagos here seem quite chilled and can come pretty close, we never felt too bothered by them just enjoyed the show, pics attached Temps certainly high, just checked my computer and nearly every dive was 27-28...

The usual route from the UK, Bogotá followed by an internal flight to Cali - Avianca,reliable and they have numerous flights each day, I always arrive at least the day before in case of luggage delays. Unfortunately for us probably the worst sea conditions in the last 5-6 years but the Ferox...

I went end March last year and dived by West and North coast, Eurodivers and Dodo Divers up north, both were good, generally I think the better diving is off the north end especially if you can go further off shore but nice to experience both locations, water temps pretty similar in both...

Always worth a dive or 2 at Gili Mimpang, closer and I have seen more Mola Mola there than Crystal Bay - usually less current too, not sure they’ll be there in Jan though - bit late in the season but you never know🤞

Lovely write up and I too enjoyed a couple of days looking round Jakarta on my way to RA. I often have similar concerns on Liveaboards and will try and go land based if that option is available as I feel there is much more flexibility. I did that part of RA from land and completely understand...

Great videos and glad you enjoyed the trip, I wish more boats had this number of single cabins. 201 days before I return - counting down the days:)

I thoroughly enjoyed Papua Explorers, fantastic resort and diving - if you put Papua Explorers in the search it will bring up mine and others reviews

Nice report and brought back fond memories of last April, going back on an extended trip end of Jan as I enjoyed it so much. There is definitely enough to do in a couple of days in Cali, a city tour including up to Cristo Rey is very good and I also took a great tour out hiking in the Parque...

Second Malpelo, going back for second time end Jan 2024 which hopefully should be peak Hammerhead time. Ferox is a great boat and works really well for diving with single cabins too. I have experienced much worse currents in the like of Nusa Lembongan,Maldives and Raja so I would not worry...

Have you considered Malpelo, hammerheads, white tip, silky, galapagos a certainty and if you are very lucky the small tooth sand tiger shark (which are actually huge) and the Ferox has single cabins to boot

I flew into Jakarta Dec 2021 and no issues at all with camera gear or Taxi’s, enjoy Papua Explorers -great team and location

No problem, we tend to do Pemuteran first and then end up simply falling asleep in the taxi while they drive us up there, it is very quiet and chilled up there so no everyone’s cup of tea

Often stay on Nusa Lembongan and not sure there is much snorkelling off the beach but on the dive trips out to Crystal Bay and Manta Point they always take snorkelers. Pretty high chance of seeing Mantas (my daughter did) and there is some decent snorkelling off to the side in Crystal bay Have...

I stayed at Papua Dive Explorers last year (Cape Kri area) and out of 39 dives only used my reef hook once. Most dives are wide angle, corals and fish - there are a couple of macro sites but the resort has 4 boats so there is plenty of choice each day. The advantage I found being land based was...

Pics

Just returned from Seychelles and dived both Praslin and Mahe (Beau Vallon area) There is not much coral, most of the bottom is granite boulders / sand. I thought both islands were pretty much the same in terms of fish life but the dive sites a bit further out tend to be better as a general rule...

I have used Benthos Bali Dive Resort the last couple of times I stayed in Candidasa, did the day trip over to Manta Point and Crystal Bay with them too. Like Luke recommend both the Gili dives
