This^^^. Put it on your 'bucket list'.Ribbon Reef trip and the Yongala wreck.
Squeezing in a last minute work trip to Australia (Sydney) next week, and both the Ribbon Reef options are fullNew years eve eve 2019 for me, did a 3 night liveaboard from Townsville finishing on the Yongala. I reckon equal top 3 with the Coolage and Manta Point Nusa Penida. I'm off to the Philippines next week with a week at Moalboal then a week at Tubbataha, that list might change after that![]()
Adrenalin. Tubbataha is number 1 nowDo you remember which operator you did the 3 night liveaboard with? Did your list change?
The food is fantastic, did you score a Friday night, the seafood is very good.Thank you! Managed to grab two nights on Lady Elliot Island
Yes! A reef cabin room was the only thing left and one night is a Friday, so seems like I lucked outThe food is fantastic, did you score a Friday night, the seafood is very good.
And a "Reef Cabin" is best , if you can get one, they go quick, when not scuba diving, the snorkeling is good on the North side [near the lighthouse], it's all good, depends on the wind and time of year.
Night glass bottom boat trip is worth it also, and again, depends on the tide and wind.
Enjoy.
You will get dives in, there is always a lee side of this island to dive, it is only a speck in the big blue with an airstrip and cabins.but fingers crossed on a boat trip and weather playing nice next week
