Where to go diving in Aug leaving from Beijing?

[Taurean B]

I may be in Beijing in Aug coming from NYC going back to NYC any recomendations on where to go diving within a 10hr flight from Beijing during the last week in Aug? My Wife & I are AOW/Nitrox with 150 or so dives each. We've only dived in the Caribbean. We're comfortible with drift diving, and are looking for sharks, hammerheads, soft corals, Manta's etc. Not much into "the small stuff".

flying to cebu is probably easiest option to get some of what you are looking for. komodo maybe if you can find availability for mermaid liveaboard from bali that last week.
