Diving in Timor
OK, it's been brought to my attention several times that I have not updated my blog for two months. So here goes. I will attempt to bring it up to date.
In January 2011 I completed my Advanced Open Water Diving Course in Dili, East Timor through Dive Timor Lorosae. I can't speak too highly of the staff at Dive Timor, or the quality of the diving. They were both awesome! Each night, after diving or working, there was always a crowd of people to socialise with at the Castaway Bar, which is connected with Dive Timor. There was great food, good wine and terrific company.
After I completed the course I went on to do a number of other dives, just for fun. I saw giant clams, beautiful sea slugs, the occasional ray, gorgeous coral and amazing coloured fish. Yet I was told that the visibility was comparatively poor and that it was much better later in the year. I will have to go back!
I don't have an underwater camera, so to give you a taste of what I saw, I have shamelessly downloaded these photos from the Dive Timor Lorosae website, which has copyright.
