Every year we take divers to amazing locations to dive the best sites around the world! I often get asked by students and new scuba divers "What is the best place to dive overseas?". There are so many breath taking dive sites in the world, but Hideaway Island in Vanuatu is the best trip to take for beginning travellers and divers alike. The waters around Hideaway have been declared a Marine Sanctuary. The extensive protected reefs are full of colourful sponges, hard corals, sea anemones, gorgonian fans and an amazing number of tropical fish!!!
1. Hideaway Island is a small Island in Vanuatu surrounded by clear turquoise waters.
The Island is known for being a perfect getaway for divers and snorkelers alike! An intimate Island getaway, especially great for newbies.
2. Excellent Introduction to overseas travel.
In the Vanuatu Expedition all flights and transfers are looked after for you. The overall price is super cheap, with options to upgrade room packages etc.
3. Snorkelling & Scuba right from shore!
Swim through the clear tropical waters. Wake up and roll into the water for a dive! There are 18 dive sites, all 10 minutes from shore!
4. The resort is staffed by local, experienced Instructors and Divemasters who will show you all of the must-see dive sites and what to look out for!
The friendly and professional Instructors and Divemasters will ensure you are safe and you see the best of every site. You will see anemones, gorgonian fans, sponges and hard corals!
5. The surrounding water has been declared a marine sanctuary.
Due to this protection, the extensive reef eco-system is flourishing. Witness anemones the size of a family car and of course their inhabitants the Clown Fish.
6. Lots to see and do within the Open Water max depth limit of 18 metres.
Dive sites in specific are Emperors Garden which is a hugely colourful underwater garden with amazing sea scapes and Hangover Reef (named appropriately by the boys on New Years Day) which showcases huge table corals, clams and amazing swim throughs.
7. Optional Extension Package available to Santo, to dive The President Coolidge.
During World War II, the islands of Efate and Espiritu Santo were used as allied military bases. Espiritu Santo now offers divers the amazing SS President Coolidge, the largest, most easily accessible, recreational diving wreck in the world!
