similan islands, Thailand

[2Dive]

it was definately a terrible time, my partner and staff were on a boat at Island number 9, had finished morning dive and then just felt the boat rock (were totally unaware until we managed to get a phone call in from the USA (coudn't reach them from Thailand due to phone lines so busy) and find out they were ok. However, we still go diving there and love it.

I still have video footage and fotos from before and after the tsunami that i never made public, fortunatelly a big part of the similan islands were not really affected by the tsunami as they are well off shore no really in shallow water so the waves could not build up to wipe out everything as it happened on mainland. Still i heard from people who were in the water at the time that a very strong "current" hit them to the extent that the regulators was pulling out of his mouth!

but back to freediving and Thailand, i cant wait to get there, damn i love that place. serge
