One of the neat things about this job is getting to talk about other divers’ experiences. This winter we have had clients telling us about their amazing experiences diving/snorkeling with humpback whales in Niue and Tonga, and with minke whales in Queensland. Memories are very emotional experiences that will be with them for a lifetime. Other divers have been in the water with orcas, hammerheads and mantas, and most divers favourite dives are the shark feed dives. “Muck diving” is gaining popularity these days – searching for pigmy seahorse, leaf fish, rhinopias, and thousand of other interesting and colourful critters. Other divers have been groveling around wrecks from a bygone era of WW11. Keep your holiday stories coming in to us and email us your pictures – it helps us get through the winter!

| Would the last diver to
leave NZ please turn the lights out! September saw over 80 NZ divers leave the winter blues for the tropical blue waters of the Solomons. 60 divers joined our 3 special charters on “M.V. Bilikiki” – 3 awesome trips and for many it was their 2nd or 3rd liveaboard trip to the Solomons. It’s the diversity of the diving and the calm waters that make the Solomons one of the top dive locations on our blue planet. A new dive operation has set up in Honiara, specializing in the Guadalcanal wrecks. It is easy to combine these with the big shipwrecks at Tulagi just across Iron Bottom Sound. We will be putting this combination together as “The Ultimate South Pacific Wreck Divers Paradise” Solomon Airlines have direct flights from Auckland departing Saturdays, returning Sunday, or you can travel via Brisbane 2 days a week as well – which works better for South Island departures. Solomon Airlines are also currently refurbishing 3 domestic aircraft in readiness for the expected high number of divers returning to the Solomons next year. Dive operations in Gizo and Uepi Isalnd, west of Guadalcanal, are operating and the diving in these areas is about as good as it gets from land based facilities. The Solomons is not for everyone. But if you like adventure combined with spectacular scenery and world class diving, the Solomons should be your next dive adventure. We suggest you book early, as domestic aircraft space will be limited
on days which connect with international flights. |

Don’t miss out! It is physically easier to do 4 liveaboard dives a day than 2 land based dives. Combine this with the high level of service, great cuisine and the camaraderie of other divers and it’s easy to see why divers just love liveaboard diving. It’s truly the BEST way to dive. We have 3 special charters for 2005 and you’re welcome to join us on these. Or you may prefer other scheduled departures- contact us for details. Solomon Islands PNG Cocos Islands, Costa Rica |

| Mid January to mid April is traditionally the slow season for most South Pacific dive resorts. It’s a shame as often some of the best diving is over the long hot summer as all the juvenile fish form big schools which attracts even bigger fish, bait bails and lots of action. Combine the extra fish activity with heaps of resort and airfare specials around the Pacific and you’re in for great diving while saving hundreds of $$. So if you’re looking for a summer dive holiday, the best
Pacific dive locations are only 3-4 hours away
and on sale! |
