Successfully we completed another safari for technical divers on Java Sea. On Nov. 18, in Surabaya, a group of experienced divers from Australia checked-in, whose aim was to find a few wrecks from The Second World War. Our goal was ambitious, but realistic to achieve. Where we have been diving? Maigen Maru – 178 m, japanese cargo ship; depth 52-68 m HMS Electra – british distroyer – approx. 220 m long; depth 48-58 m Benclun – british freighter; 140 m long; 69-80 m depth Augustina – british tanker; 25-48 m depth British freighter from the 2nd war, approx. 80 m long in very good shape; 60 m depth + Encounter – dutch war ship; front part approx 70 m remained Meratus Mas – indonesian tanker 130 m long; depth 45 – 67 m Itsukushima – hudge japanese minelayer; 72-88 m depth.

27 of July our liveaboard EMPRESS departed from Medana Bay Marina – Lombok. The group of divers from Hong Kong did their first check dive in Gili Islands and headed to Madang Island, Satonda and Moyo to finally reach Komodo National Park on the day 4 – on the way they will enjoy fantastic landscapes, dives along Sumbawa island and thousands of stars above!
