The Forgotten Islands of the southeast Moluccas and the Banda Sea (Indonesia) aboard Seven Seas
November 4-27, 2010
The BEST BOAT, the BEST GUIDES and the BEST DIVING. Don’t miss out!
23 days of the best diving this planet has to offer. Our tour will begin in Bali, with a short flight to Flores to embark Seven Seas. Diving the critter sites of Flores and east, we will make our way to the Forgotten Islands of Southeast Moluccas. Most of our dive sites will be extremely remote and virgin. Few people have spent time in this region as it is so far from major ports of call and takes a long trip to reach this far east. Fewer still have dived it. While there will be some exploratory diving, most sites will be know quality, with boat owner Mark Heighes as our guide. Mark has travelled to and dived Tenggara and Tanimbar and is excited to return there with us in 2010. Having explored the Forgotten Islands, Seven Seas will turn north to Gunung Api, the active volcano that attracts hundreds of sea snakes. From there, we will continue on to the Banda Islands, with time ashore in Banda Neira, before finishing the tour in Ambon and flying back to Bali.
Not only will we dive pristine reefs and pinnacles, but we will have some rare cultural encounters with islander who see few visitors, and even fewer Westerners.
Join us aboard the luxury yacht Seven Seas, with the most knowledgeable guides of Indonesia, for an adventure to the epicenter of marine culture. This trip is a once in a lifetime opportunity, and not to be missed. Space is limited to 14 passengers. Call 972-780-0872 for further details!
