East Timor

[vollie]

Hi guys!

I am living where you find one of the best shore diving in the owrl with very pristine reefs. Why this is never mentioned on your this here?

I agree! Been to ET twice and loved it. I bet it's going to take off in the next five years so enjoy it while it's still off the radar

Its a bit more expensive than Thailand or Indonesia, but that will change when the UN will leave this year. Have a look at Dive Timor Lorosae

Well, I will be on a Dive Damai exploratory trip going from West Papua, island hopping down a string of islands ending in Timor. I am leaving in THREE DAYS!! Woohoo. After spending a week in Ambon, I will be heading your way. It would be nice saying hi while we are there.

Here is a recent article a friend wrote about Timor diving that is quite useful. http://www.divetheblue.net/pdf/149Timor.pdf

OC, do you have any suggestions about getting to Jako Island? Considering Timor for coming fall but skipping the liveaboard because we're already doing lots of other stuff on this trip. It looks like getting to this end of the island needs advance logistics, thanks!
