We will be in Rabaul, PNG two nights ahead of our liveaboard departure and are looking for places to stay. Has anyone been there? Stayed there? Can anyone tell me any specifics about the area? It looks since the eruption, that the actual "town" of Rabaul is actually migrating to Kokopo...

Well, ok, here's the deal. In another thread, I've been accused of being a paid shill for the airline cartel to come here and under the guise of a mild mannered scuba diver, to post views contrary to the prevailing wisdom that the world needs another good intentioned, yet misguided, law to...

Hello all, My wife and I will be in Curacao for 5 days just after Christmas. We're staying at the Lodge Kura Hulanda, way over on the western tip. My question is this, do we need a car? We'll have 4 days to dive, and I am thinking one day will be a boat dive out to Watamula & Mushroom...

You know our sport has reached the big time when it makes the front page of the ONION http://www.theonion.com/content/node/54362 :D

I passed my nitrox certification last night and just wanted to pat my own back! :D

Hello All, Just wondering whether anyone has any details regarding Mike Ball's decision to pull out of PNG? Their website announcement is pretty succinct, and doesn't mention any plans for the Paradise Sport in 2007. Thanks!
