| New Destinations in February! Go diving in Japan, our Destination of the Month. The offshore ecosystem found off Japan's Izu Peninsula is unparalleled in the Indo Pacific, acclaimed by National Geographic and Ocean Realm as among the world's richest and most diverse marine habitats. Millions of scuba divers have explored this rare combination of vivid marine life and spectacular volcanic undersea topography. The Bandas, Dive Global's newest Diver's Tale in Indonesia this time, offering stunning tropical scenery, a remarkable history, friendly villages, and some of the world's most pristine, biologically diverse coral reefs. Scuba is new here, but the pioneering divers didn't have to work hard for their thrills. The undersea world around Ambon and the nearby island of Saparua have top-rate dive sites. Highlights among reef walls here are the presence of large marine life - sharks, enormous turtles, schools of Napoleon Wrasse, giant groupers, tuna, rays, and huge lobsters - neighbors to generous schools of reef fish. Check out our latest Trip of the Month centered in the Bay of Bengal are the mysterious Andaman Islands. To the west lay the Maldives, to the east, Burma and Thailand. A chain of one hundred and fifty lush tropical islands, forgotten by the modern world. The most striking feature and the big attraction of diving in the Andamans is the sheer number and variety of fish one can encounter. Because of the almost total absence of commercial fishing and industrial pollution the sealife is extraordinary healthy. The diving is for this reason world class. |
