The 2014 Scuba Show hits Long Beach this weekend
The 2014 Scuba Show takes place in Long Beach, California this weekend (7th – 8th June), at the Long Beach Convention Center. One of the largest consumer dive shows in the United States, this year marks the show’s 27th year.
The Convention Center’s 76,000 square feet of exhibit space will host hundreds of diving companies and resorts from around the world. Experts will talk about and display the latest diving equipment, dive travel destinations, dive education, underwater photography and much more. This is a great opportunity to visit with dive professionals, check out the latest dive gear, see beautiful underwater photography and video, and mingle with thousands of other active divers.
In addition to the booths and film festival, there will be tens of thousands of dollars in door prizes, live California seafood cooking demonstrations and a continuous film festival on a three-story screen. With audience participation, a famous marine artist will create a large work of art that will be auctioned at the end for charity.
General admission is $12, and a full exhibit and seminar pass is $74. For more information on the show, visit www.scubashow.com.

Indo Siren, a vessel from the Master Liveaboards Fleet, has been destroyed by a fire this morning. Thankfully, all guests and crew members are safe.
Master Liveaboards have released the following statement:
During our current cruise in Raja Ampat, on the morning of 30th November, a fire broke
out on Indo Siren. At the current time we are still assessing the events around the incident,
and will be working with authorities, so cannot currently comment further.
All guests and staff departed the boat, without further incident. They are now with our
ground crew who have organised accommodations while we assist with all their other
needs going forwards.
We are currently evaluating the issues created by the fire on upcoming trips. Guests who
are likely to be affected by enforced cancellations or changes will be contacted in due time
when plans are finalised.
We are incredibly grateful that this incident was not more serious and that everyone who
was onboard, both crew and guests, are safe and well.
