<p>STOP PRESS!!   2012 Dates are still available &#8211; <a href="http://www.diversiondivetravel.com.au/dive_cruises/australia/termine_verfuegbarkeiten/australia_tsr25.html?von=201106&amp;bis=201107&amp;keys=16*" target="_blank">Check online</a> or  FREECALL in Australia 1800 607 913 or email <a href="mailto:Info@diversiondivetravel.com.au">Info@diversiondivetravel.com.au</a> for details</p>
<p>We have berths available on Mike Balls super livebaoard vessel, Spoilsport! This is a rare chance for an adventure of a life time in Australia. June and July each year is the season to encounter the Minke Whales. These excursions are for snorkelers and divers!</p>
<p>There are not many people in the world lucky enough to experience this but now this week you can be one of them!</p>
<p>The species that we will be observing is the Dwarf Minke Whale, which grows to a maximum length of about 8 metres. As soon as the whales get close to the boat, the skipper will disengage the engine and the boat will silently along with the current. Two ropes will be hanging from the back deck and you will be gliding in the water, wearing your mask fins and snorkel and a wetsuit. You just hang on to that rope, wait and see. The scene is set: Showtime!</p>
<div id="attachment_366" style="width: 205px" class="wp-caption alignright"><a title="Minke Whale Video on Youtube" href="http://youtu.be/-DmQvxOV66g" target="_blank"><img class="size-full wp-image-366  " title="Minke Whale" src="http://blog.diversiondivetravel.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/1minke4.jpg" alt="" width="195" height="146" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Click to watch video</p></div>
<p>The whales  are very curious by nature and will continue to come closer to have a look at you.</p>
<p>For unknown reasons, they are interested in contact with people! They like to show of acrobatics like the belly loop for example, right in front of snorkelers!  If previous people&#8217;s whale encounter experience is any indication, there are no words for it. You&#8217;re going to be profoundly glad for the experience. Be quick, we have only a few berths to sell!</p>
<p>This is THE ultimate thrill for everyone who admires whales. The success rate of whale encounters is very high. Contact us: <a href="mailto:info@diversiondivetravel.com.au">info@diversiondivetravel.com.au</a></p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://blog.diversiondivetravel.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/my-sheena-liveaboard_6582.jpg"><img class="size-thumbnail wp-image-600 alignright" title="Sheena Maldives" src="http://blog.diversiondivetravel.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/my-sheena-liveaboard_6582-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a>Our friends at SHEENA dive cruises in the Maldives asked us to help advertise these cruises in September:</p>
<p>It is with great pleasure that we can offer you an authentic Maldivian diving experience. We are offering two unique 10 days trips starting from Male (no additional transfer costs for Airtaxi) aboard our safari boat “MY Sheena” to the northern region of the Maldives. We will start the tour towards North Male Atoll, which features some of the most spectacular channels. Spots such as “Finger Point”, Blue Canyon”, “Lucky Express” and “Werner Special” etc. will be included in this special trip.</p>
<p><a href="http://blog.diversiondivetravel.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/my-sheena-liveaboard_6391.jpg"><img class="alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-601" title="MY Sheena" src="http://blog.diversiondivetravel.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/my-sheena-liveaboard_6391-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a> Hanifaru Bay located in Baa Atoll, is undoubtedly the highlight of this tour. During the south-west monsoon season, countless manta rays are attracted to this small bay by its’ plankton-rich waters. It’s not unusual to see hundreds of manta rays together at one time! Furthermore, numerous whale sharks often join the show!  This site will be included on the list of “World Heritage Sites” in the near future!!!</p>
<p>  To conclude this spectacular tour, we will also dive the sites “Sharks &amp; More” and “Caribbean Tail” located in the Noonu Atoll and will also making a planned stop in the Lhaviyani Atoll on our way back to Male to dive „Ship Yard“– a dive site which features two wrecks.</p>
<p> The tour is suitable for advanced divers only, due to expected strong current conditions &amp; channel crossings. We therefore require a minimum number of 60 logged divers.</p>
