Prices for Diving Bikini Atoll

I cant help but think of the uranium miners that got lung cancer just from breathing the dust.

Good food will attract me to almost anything I am still keen. I saw some images in a shark book of tons of sharks hanging out there that were almost starving, you only had to hang a camera over the side of the boat and there were dozens coming up all over the place.

i am new to this forum and the dates on the posts seem to jump around. anyway Bikini Diving appears closed. The airline that serviced the area Air Marshall had major problems this year and with the cost of fuel, it just was not worth it. I think there was one actual trip in 2008 and according to the web site it does not look for reopening next year. THIS IS SAD. It was an incrdible dive location and though it was $$$ the diving made it worthwhile. Also some of the posts were concerned with radiation. I think that is not a problem. Agriculture could be an issue but there is none.

it is sad. i was there in 2001 and again in 2006. The ships were really starting to show their age on the last trip. Saratoga in particular. Dives which we did in 01 were no longer done because of structural collapse.
