My partner and I are OW certified and will get AOW certified in the next few months. I've dove Thailand, GBR, Cozumel.
I'm looking for a diving vacation for May-Jun 2020. Hope to go somewhere where we can see a lot of big pelagics (whale sharks, manta rays) and biodiversity, that has some activities to do on land, and isn't going to bake us alive with heat.
Considering the following:
-
- Sipadan, Malaysia
- Komodo/Bali, Indonesia
- Fiji (sorry, not in Asia but thoughts?)
- Galapagos (sorry, not in Asia but thoughts?)
Crossed out:
- Palau -> Rainy season so probably not?
- Red Sea (Egypt) -> Probably too hot?
- Raja Ampat, IN - rainy season
I should note that we've never done a liveaboard before but we may be interested in the possibility.
What would you recommend?
