Sea Safari III
This 42m (125
feet) Phinisi Bugis Schooner is operated by Kararu
Dive Voyages, a very comfortable luxury
live-aboard.
One of the better live-aboards I ever been on. Plenty of room for everyone
both indoor and outdoors. Great dive deck set up, great food and
phenomenal crew. The daily schedule was described by one of the dive masters:
"if you don't know what to do? Feel your hair??? If it is wet it is time to eat!
If it is dry it
is time to dive! IT DOESN'T
GET ANY BETTER THAN THAT!
Oh, I almost forgot about the diving. The diving in Komodo area is the BEST
diving I have ever done anywhere. The reef's are very healthy, the softcoral is
even more plenty full than in Fiji. There are lots of large animals around, I
lost count of the number of manta rays and sharks we saw, this picture
sums it up best, the shark "got in the way" of the manta! Or was
it the other way around? In-spite of all the big critters the little
critters are even more phenomenal. I have never seen so many different
nudibranchs anywhere.
The black sand muck dives, especially at night are just incredible. Can't
wait to go back!
