I did a three day two night trip where I stayed on the CB, a nice boat anchored next to a large island. From there we would take a small boat anywhere from 10 minutes to one hour to spectacular dive sites. Best diving I have ever done. The instructors were happy to take me to the dive sites I wanted to see and were also very open with suggestions of how they could make my trip better. The staff, boat, and food were all amazing. Want to personally thank Max, Fred, and Antoine for being such great dive instructors and keeping me safety first. They would jump into the water before dive to do current checks to make sure we wouldn’t get pushed away from the dive sites. Had an unforgettable experience on the CB! Highly recommend!
These are crazy times aren’t they? At this point - we all know the virus is there and has affected almost every aspect of our world. Almost every continent and country has been affected. Almost certainly each of us is directly impacted in one form or another.
However, we are not asking for help with our business. We are asking for help in the community. With tourism shut down, there is no income. In Flores/Komodo a whole generation has grown up entirely dependent on tourism. This was already a marginal area, with very few other employment options available. Now it has become a crisis. We have done all we can to aid and assist in providing for our own staff and their families, but the whole region is struggling. The lack of tourism has impacted every industry and most families.
This has gone from an inconvenience to a disaster. Most parents are unable to provide for their children. We can make a difference, and so can you. 50USD/40EUR can actually provide the basic necessities for a family of 4 for one month! This essentials care package is made up of rice, noodles, eggs, cooking oil, cabbage, soap and drinking water.
