Welcome to our June 2016 Newsletter |
Under way for new adventures!
After more than a one month break for yearly maintenance, and a memorable evening to celebrate and thank those involved in the success, Waow has set sail again for the magic of Indonesian waters.
As with each year, we begin our season between Bali, Komodo National Park and Maumere until the month of September. Following this we will navigate to the East in the direction of Alor and the Forgotten Islands before changing to a Northerly course for West Papua and Raja Ampat. Fabulous diving, unique landscapes and beautiful encounters await us.

A Feast for the Eyes
and the Taste-buds
Did you know that WAOW is a well-known address for food-loving divers? Adi, our head chef, chooses only high quality products and concocts with passion diverse plates, from Asian to European, as beautiful as they are tasty, just like in a gastronomic restaurant.
Our 2 daily breakfasts are served buffet style (salty or sweet with home-made breads) and is then followed by both lunch and dinner being plated 3 course affairs. Adi also prepares typical Indonesian snacks in the afternoon. Several types of wines, champagne and a large selection of refreshing cocktails are equally offered at the bar.

Currently onboard, Didier has his fins wet deep inside the Komodo National Park doing an article which will come out in the next edition of " Plongeurs International". Stay tuned for our French speaking clientele.
