Hi there,

Liked the article a lot, especially considering we did spend a dive holiday in Jan 2009.

The resort is out of ths world, so is the island itself; you get a real sense of wilderness.

The dives were amazing; being used to Egypt and endemic species, it was a real discovery for us.

Have some photos here if interested: http://picasaweb.google.com/vasidudu/Oz2009HeronIslandGreatBarrierReefQLD#

Enjoy, Olivier

Feel like you're on a private yacht charter with just ten guests. Pelagian cruises the outer reaches of the exquisite Wakatobi region.

Diving Papua New Guinea - Milne Bay: by Chris Bartlett; It is one of the few places left in the world where a diver can see macro critters, pelagics, and big stuff, as well as fantastic soft and hard corals. The often misused and abused adjective “pristine” is actually appropriate here, due to low fishing pressure in the area in comparison to other areas of the Coral Triangle, no dynamite fishing, and thanks to a system implemented by dive resorts whereby local reef "owners" receiving a small fee for every diver that visits "their" reef. As a result elders make sure that the reefs are not fished.
