Good Afternoon! I have reviewed many, many different threads and am having a hard time coming up with suggestions for my girlfriend and mine upcoming trip.
Quick background, I have about 80 dives, AOW and my girlfriend is at about 30 dives and looking to get her AOW while we are away.
We are flying into DPA in the beginning of November for two weeks. Really hoping to get off Bali immediately and spend some time on some of the islands East of there. She is not hip on doing a liveaboard given we only have two weeks and along with great diving want to explore and get into the 'culture'. I have been researching Lombok, Sulawesi, Flores and Tenggara.
Criteria: Budget is not a huge concern. Culture, relative ease of getting there (don't want to eat up too many days traveling), Good to Great Diving, Shore or short boat dives, and Topside sites are important.
Any thoughts of which islands, where to stay, who to dive with and topside must sees?
Thank you in advance!!!
