The open sea dives in Pulau Hantu, Singapore will resume from November 2007 - February 2008 as the diving season in Malaysia has ended.

 

Although most might find that the visibility ranges from 30cm to 6 meters, there are still a wide range of coral and marine life. As most might not know that green water contains lots of planktons and hence bring about a rich marine underwater world, Singapore waters is still an attraction. But of course when the dive season in Malaysia opens from March till November, enthusiast will want to go these popular destinations for its clear blue water. 

 

As the monsoon season is coming to an end, we'll be conducting most of our dives in either Pulau Hantu or Batam (Indonesia).
