Phuket Dive Centre Takes you to Paradise

March 17th, 2010

Are you stuck in the office when you would rather be day trip diving in Phuket? Noon at Dive The World’s Dive Centre found herself in a similar situation recently…

Paradise Reef

It was a beautifully sunny day and the office was crazy busy, booking a group on a liveaboard holiday and running a few diving courses so all our instructors where occupied.

Then 2 young guys walked in, intent on taking a short diving trip. One of the young men had never dived before, but he was very keen and up for the challenge. His friend was full of encouragement, he was a certified diver with a few dives under his belt, but admitted it had been a while since his last dive.

So, although I was meant to “woman” the office, I polished up my dive instructor credentials and  took them diving! Paradise Reef is a small house reef just a short 5 minute boat ride from Patong Beach. On a good day you will find clear waters and lots of amazing creatures hidden among the coral.

We did 1 dive and everything was perfect.  My student felt great on his first time breathing underwater and his friend was happy to be in the water again. We were delighted to see a rare species of honeycomb moray eel that you don’t see often in this area. Soon we were surrounded by dancing harlequin sweetlips, schools of fusiliers and loads more…

So, if you like to sleep late, are not keen on long boat journeys or just want to try out scuba diving for the 1st time, please feel free to pop into the Dive Centre anytime or call us on +66 (0)76 340 318.

Soon you could be diving Paradise Reef, finning alongside interesting sea life!

Best Fiji Dive Resorts Escape Cyclone Tomas

March 17th, 2010

Are you a little concerned about the impact of Cyclone Tomas on your Fiji diving holiday? You have nothing to worry about. We checked in with our dive operators to see how they fared. Their response: “The guests are diving … It’s beautiful weather today!”

So, with relief, we can say that most of Fiji’s dive resorts have come through the weekend safe from harm.

When asked about Viti Levu and surrounding islands, Tourism Fiji CEO Josefa Tuamoto said “They remain untouched by the cyclone’s passing”. Tuamoto went on to say that all power and communication lines have been restored in Vanua Levu and Taveuni. Which is great news for your diving at Lagoon Resort and Paradise Taveuni Resort.

On Kadavu, Dive Kadavu Matana Beach Resort was totally missed by Cyclone Tomas as it headed south-east out to the open sea. Matava Resort – The Great Astrolabe Hideaway reported some severe weather, but as they were not in the cyclone’s path everything is A-OK today.

Despite dropping anchor at the Vanua Levu, the island worst hit by Tomas, AS Tui Tai sheltered in Viani Bay and experienced only minimal damage.  As a precaution her guests were successfully evacuated and she will lay at harbour this week for some basic carpentry to restore her to her former beauty as one of the world’s sexiest liveaboards.

International flights are fully operational to and from Fiji’s major airport at Nadi. So come on over and dive Fiji, the ’soft coral capital of the world’. Contact Dive The World for more information on +66 (0)83 505 7794 or send us an email.

New Red Sea Liveaboards For You

March 8th, 2010

Are you thinking about packing your scuba gear and heading out to the Red Sea for a diving holiday? You are just in time for the best of the 2010 Red Sea diving season and we have added a whole range of new liveaboards.

It was not easy sailing for the hardened professionals who had to endure gruelling cruises, test out jacuzzis and masseuses, forced to dive 3 times a day and then eat more than their fill… but the reports are in and the following boats have passed muster. We now introduce them to you, confident they will enhance your diving pleasure.

MY Cyclone belongs to the professional Tornado Fleet and will dazzle you with her wood panelled finishes, a jacuzzi on the teak sundeck and private en-suite facilities for all her guests.

You’ll be blown away by MY Cyclone’s wrecktastic itineraries in Hurghada and the Sinai Peninsula from her 55m2 dive deck or 2 dinghies.

MY Snefro Crown is a very popular gold class luxury boat, that will treat you like royalty. Built in 2008 and refurbished annually, her cabins are all ensuite with private minibars and music centres.

Some like it hot, so you could relax in a sauna on the sundeck while looking forward to diving the Sinai Peninsula from 2 dinghies with FREE nitrox.  

MY King Snefro 5 is the best bargain you can ever expect to find in the Red Sea. With a maximum of 12 guests she is perfect if you are looking for a more peaceful holiday.

In addition to touring the Sinai Peninsula, she also offers you 3 or 4 night minisafaris to Ras Mohammed where you can dive famous wrecks like the HMS Thistlegorm.

Still undecided which liveaboard to choose for your Red Sea diving holiday? Don’t delay, the best of the Red Sea diving season is just around the corner! Contact Dive The World to discuss your options on +66 (0)83 505 7794 or email blog@dive-the-world.com.
