Description & Note
http://www.manta-dive.com/dive-courses-padi-ssi.php?cmsFld=58The course includes equipment, certification, and a Manta Dive t-shirt. There is also a reef tax which is a one time payment of Rp40,000 (approx $4). Certification course prices are fixed for all dive shops here in the Gilis; however, if you pre-book with us via email confirming your dates we can offer you a free fun dive after you have completed your course.

Gili Trawangan是Lombok西北三小島中最大、也是最熱鬧的一個(Gili是小島的意思;另外兩個是Gili Air和Gili Meno);由於很多土地都是歐洲人透過當地人頭持有,又被稱作歐洲小島。整個小島上除了工作的當地人,全部都是西方面孔,老哥和我顯得相當明顯,老是被問是不是日本人。

吃一餐大約要40-60K Rp,精緻餐點150K Rp跑不掉,畢竟小島物資都靠外援,吃的開銷真要省也省不了多少,不如就開心吃痛快喝!

 超棒的當地食物

Manta Dive本身除了是潛水中心,也有提供住宿。潛水課程的認證是SSI (http://www.divessi.com/)系統,與PADI互認。進階課程包含五支氣瓶(如果事先預約,會加贈一支),有深潛和導航兩門核心課程:

  • Deep Dive:
    Learn to dive down to 30 meters and increase your diving opportunities. Experience the effects of Nitrogen Narcosis and now you can be the one telling the stories about what you saw on the DEEP DIVE….. –> 教練會在深水中進行一些邏輯測試,來判斷你是不是發生氮醉;Eddy考我逆寫第十個月份的英文,我索性先寫October在逆寫回來,被他笑了一陣XD;隨著水深變化,Eddy還要我們辨識一顆不明植物,由於白光分色吸收,紅色的蕃茄此刻看起來就像顆發霉的馬鈴薯。
  • Underwater Navigation: 
    Learn to navigate using both a compass and natural navigation techniques to find your way around underwater.

另外有八選三的選修課程,我選了夜潛(Night Diving)、水中攝影(Underwater Photography/Digital Photography)與生態認識(Underwater Naturalist)。

潛點密集的分佈在小島旁,可以根據自己有興趣的生物(海龜、鯊魚、或魟魚)或是地形,來選擇潛點http://www.manta-dive.com/divesites-gili-islands.php。每次潛水都是搭乘小船出海,以背仰式入水,第一次下水時,還覺得自己挺帥的呢!

天天都Diving

水中攝影用的相機可以向潛水中心租借(USD 20/camera),是帶有防水罩的小數位相機,由於水中的色彩已經隨著各色光被吸收而發生變化,因此相機可以用1)紅色調系補色2)強制閃光來還原。可是如果遇上海流,那可真夠你頭疼的了,我只能用機關槍掃射法,從一堆照片中挑出幾張經典跟大家分享囉~

呆呆的小丑魚 男子海中芭蕾 小屏風 烏賊很會變色

總之,眼睛所看到的,永遠超過相機所能展現的!

2 回應

  1. [...] 從Bali東部的Sanur出發,兩個小時的船程,就可以抵達Lombok最為潛水客稱道的小島三兄弟-Gili Trawangan、Gili Air和Gili Meno。詳細攻略已寫在李氏兄妹年終巨獻-2009玩到2010 (Part 2),就不再贅述。 [...]

  2. [...] 會開始潛水,是因為老哥在2009 聖誕節行程中安插了Advance open water課程,我為了配合他的進度,出國前趕鴨子上架地唬了一張Open water執照(感謝身為潛水教練的姑丈,排除萬難地幫我安排熟識的教練,直接下海教學)。就這樣,還不太能掌握耳壓平衡與中性浮力的我,依舊傻傻地拿著5支氣瓶的經驗值,跨海來到Lombok繼續AOW課程。 [...]
