Results and wrap-up from the 4th Underwater Festival™ - The Christmas island Experience

The timing of this year’s Underwater Festival coincided with the end of the wet season on the island and the tail end of the Whaleshark season and expectations of the visiting divers were high.

The 2010 Underwater Festival was co-organised with the Christmas Island Tourism Association. Linda Cash, staff members and local volunteers put in a fantastic effort and succeeded gloriously in providing a welcoming atmosphere, great food and social events and a seamless festival for all 34 participants.

A Turtle Nursery At WakatobiA Turtle Nursery At Wakatobi

by KarenS

Sea Turtles can live to be 100 years old, but most don’t survive their first few days. In the wild, the tiny hatchlings typically encounter a gauntlet of predators as they hatch and make their way from beachside nests to open water, and they remain especially vulnerable those first few months of life. When nature is in balance, this attrition is a normal part of the circle of life. But when turtles become threatened by factors such as habitat loss, or predators like fish and birds, they may need a little extra help to maintain a normal population. This is where Wakatobi Dive Resort has stepped in.
