Dive Review of
Golden Dawn in
Papua New Guinea

[Unspecified]Mexico, California, Socorro Islands, Galapagos Islands.

Dive Conditions

[Unspecified]Only safety restrictions were enforced.  My buddy and I
surfaced too quickly once (his regulator went free flow) and did not dive
for 24 hours. VERY safety minded without paranoia.   

[None]  

Overall Rating

[None]I cannot imagine a more exciting, informative, relaxed and pleasant
gastronomic fiesta!  Have been on this boat three times.  The water is
fantastic, the boat and accommodations very comfortable and the food is
incomparable.  Craig is (I am sure)the most accomplished ocean guide of PNG
and the most "common sense" dive master I've known! His life,
profession and love of the ocean and the life below it's surface fit him
like a glove!  I cannot emphasize my respect for him enough.  The crew is
top shelf and always smiling.  

The reefs are colorful and full of life.  From pygmy seahorses to sharks
and soft/hard corals to giant sea fans, the underwater world of PNG is a
veritable cornucopia of colors and textures.  Some swinging or swaying with
the ocean surges and others holding firm against strong, driivng currents. 


From nearly still waters to super strong currents blowing you wildly across
reef tops (as you tumble over and around almost uncontrollably) you will
experience many different diving conditions. Above all, when you return
from this trip, you will feel as if you have a boat load of friends in PNG.
I look forward to seeing my friends on the Golden Dawn again.  The genuine
nature of their life - the sincere caring and desire to make your trip as
good as it can be is compelling.  To live a life as genuine and pure as the
people on Golden Dawn do.... is something to which I aspire!
