The trip was the last liveaboard trip before the vessel is rebuilt and upgraded for the upcoming high season. We have been very lucky with the weather conditions during the last couple of days and the trip was very pleasant.
The pinnacle is marked in every proper sea chart but during the last two years we did not find time, the weather was too rough or we have just been too busy diving to investigate it!
Caio, who has signed in for the PADI Drift Diver Specialty course, had the honor of joining the trip with the base leader Aaron and the owner Dennis.
Research on the internet before the trip did not give us very much information about the dive site or if anybody ever tried to scuba dive at the Depond Reef.
Yesterday evening we have had a blast of a celebration when the boys came back from the last dives around Koh Tang and a short visit at the Sunset Beach to have a quick drink at the Robinson Bungalows.
... the boys looking out for the pinnacle, it's just visible at low tide...
... yes, there it is - the Depond Reef ...
... we spotted some very interesting creatures during our dives ...
... a Giant Puffer Fish ...
... and some Cobias during our last dives at Koh Tang where we were anchoring over night...
We are very pleased with this trip as it is the culmination of many years spent exploring the Cambodian waters, where we have investigated from Koh Kong, near the Thai boarder to Ream National Park, near the Vietnamese boarder. With our local knowledge, our fantastic fleet and our experienced adventurers we are the best qualified Dive Center to successfully explore this region.
We are planning another special Liveaboard trip on the 1st of December, to explore some more interesting coordinates..... Why not join us and our team of experts.......
