Special Offer: Take the family to Indonesia this summer
Oonasdivers and Murex Dive Resorts are offering the chance to holiday as a family in Indonesia this summer with 50% discount on accommodation, diving, transfers, snorkelling and tours for children (and big kids) that are currently in full-time education (school, university or vocational training).
There are two wonderful destinations to choose from: Murex Manado and Murex Bangka, or you may like to combine the two to see more of the delights that North Sulawesi has to offer.
Manado is perfectly located to explore the world-famous Bunaken Marine Park with its stunning walls and hard corals, turtles, reef sharks and eagle rays to name but a few. The white and black sand beaches of Manado Bay are close by where you can see some of Indonesia’s rarest critters including mimic octopus, nudibranch and frogfish.
Bangka Island is located off the northern most tip of North Sulawesi and offers stunning natural beauty both underwater and on land. You’ll find white sand beaches, little tourism, few roads and a very traditional way of life. If you are looking to get away from it all then this is the perfect spot. The location is famous for its explosion of colours and kaleidoscopic soft corals along with pelagics, critters, resident dugongs, dolphins and pilot whales.
If your kids love water then they will love North Sulawesi, whether they want to paddle, snorkel or dive there is so much to see, and on land the adventure continues… from treks through rainforests to shopping at traditional markets and the Tangkoko Nature Reserve – a must for nature lovers.
Adult prices start from £1995 and include flights*, 7 nights’ accommodation full board, transfers and 12 dives. Children and big kids sharing with a parent will receive 50% discount on accommodation, transfers and dives for stays during June, July and August 2020 (terms apply).
On request the Oonasdivers team can create bespoke packages if you would like to extend your stay at the start or the end of the trip or include a visit to the Lembeh Strait otherwise known as the Critter Capital of the World!
If you would like more information, please give Oonasdivers a call on 01323 648924 or drop an email to info@oonasdivers.com.
Over the next 12 months, specialist scuba holiday company Dive Worldwide will be supporting Bite-Back Shark & Marine Conservation with donations collected from client bookings to any one of its stunning dive destinations around the world. The independently-owned operator expects to raise £3000 for the UK charity.
Manager at Dive Worldwide, Phil North, said: “We’re especially excited to work with Bite-Back and support its intelligent, creative and results-driven campaigns to end the UK trade in shark products and prompt a change in attitudes to the ocean’s most maligned inhabitant.”
Bite-Back is running campaigns to hold the media to account on the way it reports shark news along with a brand new nationwide education programme. Last year the charity was credited for spearheading a UK ban on the import and export of shark fins.
Campaign director at Bite-Back, Graham Buckingham, said: “We’re enormously grateful to Dive Worldwide for choosing to support Bite-Back. The company’s commitment to conservation helps set it apart from other tour operators and we’re certain its clients admire and respect that policy. For us, the affiliation is huge and helps us look to the future with confidence we can deliver against key conservation programmes.”
To launch the fundraising initiative, Phil North presented Graham Buckingham with a cheque for £1,000.
Visit Dive Worldwide to discover its diverse range of international scuba adventures and visit Bite-Back to learn more about the charity’s campaigns.
