* Makassar Divers



To all my friends who live in Makassar or those who are there on holiday plans, now had a chance to do fun dive or want to take dive course in Makassar, because it has been opened one dive center "Makassar Divers".

This company aims to develop sport diving in Makassar considering the natural potential of under water around Makassar appropriate for recreational diving and diving courses. Based on this "Makassar Divers" has become the first SSI Dice Center there. As SSI Dive Center certainly has met the applicable standards and procedures for SSI as a world organization for recreational diving training.

According to the owner of the dive center that is also my friend, this company has scuba gear, tanks and the air compressor those are brand new and well maintained and also has experienced instructor and office location with convenient access to the beach. All these facilities are expected to attract people of Makassar in the development of diving in this area so in the long term will be marine tourism destination and help local tourism business. This area has several small island with an interesting dive sites. There are some who are famous among experienced divers like Samalona, Kodengareng keke, Lanyukan, kapoposang and other.

* Absolute Scuba Bali & ECOLogical




Been so long I do not write in this blog. I myself was shocked when I saw the last posts on this blog, about the month of July last year. Is it because I was too busy or because it is lazy? Only God and Me knows it's answer....,,,,,,,

On this occasion I wish to convey, since SSI enabled care programs in the ECOLogical environment and invite all SSI Dive Center, Divers and Instructor to take part in the program with the aim of maintaining and preserving the environment especially in coastal, marine, marine life and dive sites. Therefore, Absolute Scuba Bali SSI dive center which is the largest and most comprehensive in the region Padangbai; Bali, has begun to activate the program within their daily activities.

Absolute Scuba Bali are now beginning to mop up the beach in the front of their resort everyday, dive sites cleaning every month with invite the participation of divers in padangbai, and also include advice about the environment in the dive briefing to divers and snorkelers who take program diving and snorkeling with Absolute Scuba Bali and many others as listed in ECOLogical general Standards and Code Of Practice.

I hope this can be followed by all the dive operators, dive center and also the divers to preserve nature and the environment .I was remember the words of a guest when he saw someone littering; "if you can not love your home , let us who love it", brief but contains a deep meaning.

Environmental problems is the problem of consciousness and discipline that should start from ourselves before inviting others to do likewise. So for those who are not aware yet and want to become conscious again, let's together participate in SSI ECOLogical programs.
