Burma 31.1.2011

5 days in Burma

31.1.-5.2.2011

People come with different expectations on a trip; some are into Macro, want to take a lot of pictures, others only want to see big stuff like Mantas and Sharks and then there are some who want to dive as relaxed as possible without current, not too deep and they want to enjoy coral reefs with lots of fish.

Burma is different...you get a lot of Macro, you can be lucky and have big stuff but you have to be aware, that the diving can be challenging and the conditions can be rougher than in other places you have been before. There are many pinnacles, sometimes the top is on 16 meters, there can be current or strong surge, that means sometimes you have to do something to see something. But if you are up for this challenge, you will have great diving, this is something we can promise.

We have done 19 dives (not everybody was doing all the dives besides
Point) in 5 days and I dare to say, that the divers who were aware of the difference in Burma, got what they were coming for. Ok, Point would have loved to see Whalesharks on every dive, but we all know this is not possible. So he had to live with Black Tips, an Eagle Ray, Nurse Sharks and lots of Blotched and Marbled Rays. The ones who came for the small stuff like Seahorses, Nudis, Ghostpipefish and Cowries had enough to look at. Especially the night dives @ Shark Cave and Western Rocky are every time a highlight. It's hard to stick to the announced 45 minutes and because it is so fascinating most of us forget how cold it is ;-)

The returning customers are showing us that we are doing a good job! We dive with passion, all the time and we are challenging ourselves every dive to find even more special things for you! Come along and you will see yourself.
