Get your dive gear ready, it’s time to dive in Indonesia again!
The Indonesian Government in conjunction with Jankar (Indonesian Shipboard Life Association) allows quarantines on a few life ships on board while diving.
To enter Indonesia, you will need to take an international flight to Manado International Airport (MDC), on the North of the island of Sulawesi, using Scoot Airline (the subsidiary of Singapore Airlines).
Once in Manado, it is no longer necessary to take any other domestic flights. The boat will be waiting at Bitung Port, which is just a 45-minute drive from Manado Airport. Due to regulations, the starting and ending port of the crossing will be Bitung.
It will be necessary to have a PCR test on the day of arrival and another the day before the end of the cruise. Once the dive trip is over, you won’t need to quarantine anymore days.
The cruise begins in the best Muck Diving destination in the world, the Lembeh Strait, where the important thing is not the coral reef, but the unique species found on its seabed.
You will explore remote and unspoilt diving spots such as Tifore Island, Wrecks, hard corals, volcanic rocks, caves, etc.
Halmahera is the largest island in the Moluccas archipelago, a tropical island covered in jungle and located in the center of the Coral Triangle, which makes you diving in the most important marine ecosystem in the world.
The pristine white sand beaches and coral reefs offer exceptional conditions for diving and snorkeling.
These are some of the species that you can find: large fish such as hammerhead sharks, barracudas, whitetip sharks, oceanic mantas, etc.
The Goraici Islands and the Pantini Strait are famous for their beaches and canals full of multitudes of reef fish.
MSY Seahorse Liveaboard is a 33-meter Phinisi luxury traditional Indonesian sailing boat, offering diving trips and adventure excursions to the best destinations in Indonesia.
The MSY Seahorse has the necessary permits for “dive-quarantine” cruises and makes the route in North Sulawesi and West Halmahera.
The classic beauty of The Seahorse Liveaboard combines traditional craftsmanship with modern conveniences and safety features that provide great comfort in Indonesia’s most remote waters.
Built in 2005, completely renovated in 2018, the Seahorse offers a level of comfort and safety among the best live-on-board dive boats in Indonesia.
The Seahorse is a luxurious and spacious vessel built by divers. It accommodates 16 guests in 5 double cabins and 3 double beds served by a crew of 12 people and 4 Dive Masters.
All of its spacious cabins are individually controlled air-conditioned and en-suite bathrooms with hot water. Its two very spacious 22-foot custom-made aluminum dinghys will make your experience of getting in and out of the sea very easy and comfortable.
In case of not being able to make the cruise because you have tested positive for COVID, the change of dates will be allowed.
The price of the complete package is 4,850 EUR
It is true that it is not the cheapest, but think that in addition to being a 12-night trip, doing a quarantine in Jakarta, would already cost a large part of that and you would be locked between four walls, so this, is like enjoying a life boat on board at half price!
