    Tanzania/Zanzibar diving

    I've also done Mnemba Island. It's pristine - but I'm happy I didn't stay at the resort as I was a poor student at the time. Instead I just did a day trip - don't remember what I paid. I enjoyed the diving. Very very clear, dolphins, turtles... It were good dives for sure!

    Recommendations - Great Barrier Reef from Sydney

    Heya, There's quite a few options for departure from Cairns but your limited time makes it more tricky. Coral Sea Dreaming does 2D/1N liveaboards. Another option you could consider is going to Port Douglas, an hour or so above Cairs and do 2 day trips with a dive shop there. For example...

    Safaga-Brothers-Elphinstone vs Deep South

    Can only confirm BDE as the right route and June is a decent month for it as well. Longimanus, Hammerhead, Silky if lucky.... They're all there but maybe not in massive schools. Took this shot in September last year at Little Brothers! But honestly, that's lucky.

    Bali vs Thailand(Similans) vs Red Sea

    Hey there! I dove all 3(4) of the destinations you mentioned and if I had to order them by personal opinion: 1. Bali: Nusa Lembongan Simply because of the amazing Mola Mola and Manta's that swim around in the right season (make sure to check). I'm a sucker for the bigger fish and Lembongan...

    What should I get for a metal detector?

    We also have an older minelab excal, still figuring it out and haven't actually used it diving yet. Any tips for that specific one? It's like almost the first one out there. Also didn't pay too much for it. Found my first coind with it the other day on the beach.
