Graduation Photo..:)

Congrates !! Four Open Water Divers had successfully completed the course requirement over the weekend in Tioman Island. The weather was favourable for the students. Rise and Shine

Guys, ready to dive ??? Toon Hwee, Jonathan, Hong wei and Sng Tiak.

Safety stop at tiger reef..you guys are fortunate to dive at tiger reef, usually i don't do training dives for open water students at tiger reef, as the surface current can be very strong. the u/water terrain was cool right ?? Abundance of gorgonian sea fan and rich soft corals.

TIOMAN DIVE REPORT 24 APR ~ 26 APR ONBOARD MV BEACHBOY

Trip report for Tioman diving over the weekend onboard MV BEACHBOY.

There was 19 divers from hydro addic departing from Lavender via combi van and MPV for Endau to board MV BEACHBOY.

25 April (1st dive)

Dive site: Pulau Tulai Bay

Time in : 1033hr

Bottom time : 30 mins

Visibility : 12 m

Max depth : 15 m

Remarks: This dive was apparently short, as some of the divers experienced equipments malfunction u/w ie. BCD auto inflate, also some of the divers who have been out of diving was having some problems descending and there were divers low on air after 25 mins u/w..well, that was what check out dive was about, to prepare the divers for the subsequent more challenging dive site ahead for us to explore :)

25 April (2nd dive)

Dive site : Pulau Chebeh

Time in : 1344hr

Bottom time : 42 mins

Visibility : 12 m

25 April (3rd dive)

Dive site : Tiger reef

Time in : 1707hr

Bottom time : 50 mins

Visibility : 15 m

Max depth : 22.5 m

Remarks : As usual, the surface current tends to be strong, however once we descended more than 5 m, the current became mild. We sighted a 1.5 m humphead parrot fish, the soft and hard corals were as healthy as before, guess this site is not often dive and therefore damages were minimal.

WANT TO SEE MOLA MOLA DURING 2009 ?

After diving for many years in Nusa Penida, albeit braving the freezing 17 degree temperarure swelling from the Indian Ocean just to catch a glimpse of the heaviest known bony fish in the world weighing about one metric ton (2,200 lbs), however often it ended up in vain. This year NDT has collaborated with some of the dive centres in Bali and the few dates with the best possible Mola Mola sighting :)

Come join us for this year for the Oceanic Sunfish dive expedition in Bali. Check our dive calender 09, alternatively NDT can also assist divers interested to dive in bali with accommodation and dive services during any of your prefer departure, that will save you so much of hassle, let us do the arrangement for you during your stay in Bali.
