James at Truk Stop told us about this when we were there last month. Not in too many details, just that a ceremony might be planed and remains to be recovered before the sight might be released for diving.

I was just texting with a good friend of mine in Jakarta. He said, verbatim "We don't have the technology to detect corona in Indonesia. So we don't know the truth". He was more concerned and complaining about the traffic....

Chris, hope to see your report or PM after you return, even though it won't help much as it's "deposit time" for me. We will do Gangga and Dive into Lembeh for this years December/January trip.... Thinking of Saba for our "in between" summer trip.

I asked them about diving Sahaung and they said that they do go there.

We have been to "Dive into Ambon". Dec/Jan 2018/19. It was great. To all the NAD fans, can you please describe the food? My husband is not a very adventurous eater, he would rather starve than eat "exotic" food. That's one of the main reasons we loved KBR, he could find something western for...

We were in Palau a few weeks ago. The Dive operator (PDA) offered us jackets and man, they did the trick...they were very light but warmed me up amazingly. I saw a logo on the sleeve, which was H2Oextreme. As soon as I got home, I googled it and found the website with the jackets costing around...

I'm talking to NAD. I'm also talking to Dive Into Lembeh. This is actually hard, because we just loved, loved KBR and it would be so much easier to just book with them again....

I did a lot of research the last time we went and we only decided on KBR when they matched the 2 to 1 diver/guide ratio. So, with that out the window this time, I contacted NAD, Black Sands and Solitude, just waiting for their reply. The other disturbing matter is the flight from Singapore to...

That's good information about Gangga Island Resort, I appreciate it. I have not done a trip report as I am still trying to get over the jet lag from the trip. It really kicked our butt this time and we have been back for a week now. In a nut shell, we stayed at Truk Stop (New Micronesian Suites...

Hmmmm, the resort sounds nice and the diving sounds better than Bunaken. We were initially going back to Raja for a week and try the new Meridiana Resort but a) they never replied to my emails and b) trying to keep the travel easy this time. Palau and Chuuk were 11 flights, and the year before...

I'm in the planning stages for our trip next December and after Chuuk and Palau last month, it's time to go back to Indo. We were at KBR in 2018 and loved it, so I thought it was a no brainer to go back again. As a matter of fact I already booked but haven't sent the deposit. But I came across a...

We dove with Patrick from Dive N' Smile Bora-Bora, he picked us up at the Hotel and brought us back, had a good time with them. On Moorea, we dove with Moorea Fun Dive, Marie & Christian, also highly recommended. Rangiroa, The Six Passengers! Would not hesitate to do it all over again...

We went to Maratua Atoll this past May. While the weather was good, we saw no Mantas, no Cudas and besides the excursions to "NO Big Fish Country", Sangalaki and Kakaban, we only dove the house reef. Diving was just ok, nothing to compared to R4 (have been to Dampier Straight and Misool)...

1. Raja Ampat We have been to North (Raja Ampat Dive Lodge) and South (Misool) North wins! Definitely recommended! 2. Philippines (Anilao, Apo Island, Tubbataha Reef, etc.) We have been to Puerto Galera and Cebu/Moalboal. Also recommended. 3. PNG (not sure where) We went to Walindi and the...

We were at Virgin Cocoa in middle/late May. The resort was wonderful but the diving was not very impressive. The viz was pretty mediocre. No Mantas at Sangalaki. No big fish at Big Fish Country. The Thresher Shark site had one shark. The rest of the week we dove the house reef which was just ok...

We also dove with Six Passengers, no complaints whatsoever. Pitu is great and we had some mesmerizing encounters with the dolphins as well. Not sure if I would have wanted a third dive......

Did you contact Robert Reimers? They shouldn't have a problem telling you who they rent the tanks to. I just did another google search and came across this: "If you are a certified diver/s you can charter the 25-foot sports boat Wasabi with Captain Cary Evarts (caryevarts@yahoo.com)". Not sure...

We spent a week on Majuro about 5 years ago. At the time RayCrew was the only dive operator we could find. And they were booked out. There was also Robert Reimers, and if I'm not mistaken, they had tanks available. We didn't really investigate too much because we were diving with friends who had...

They rebook you, in our case on the first leg, 3 days later, the second leg 2 days earlier. If we had taken all the new flights we would have had 2 days in Ambon.....So we had no choice other than to no-show for that leg (and fly on Lion Air instead) Again, it was an itinerary and one price...

Oh yeah, Garuda victim here too! I had our perfect itinerary booked months before...Manado to Ambon (via Ternate), Ambon to Gorontalo (via Makkassar) and from Gorontalo to Jakarta. 3 days before our leg from Manado to Ambon, Garuda cancelled the Ternate to Ambon leg, rebooking us for 3 days...
