Gay and lesbian divers from around the world will meet up at this beautiful reef-friendly resort on remote southeastern Sulawesi, Indonesia. Your trip begins on magical Bali with a private charter flight to Wakatobi Resort.

The authentic typical architecture of the bungalows surprises with Western comforts including air conditioning and LAN ports with internet access. All meals are included and the Balinese-trained chefs are world-class. Enjoy unlimited outstanding shore diving on the house reef and two boat dives a day.

Indonesia is the center of marine biodiversity, and the protected reefs surrounding Wakatobi are incredibly healthy, with comfortable water around 80 F and excellent visibility. Summer is the peak season for diving here. This is your opportunity to see and photograph lionfish, pygmy seahorses, ribbon eels and other marine life unique to the Indo-Pacific region.

Getting There

Don’t book flights without first consulting the trip leader. Most likely you will book round trip to Bali through Hong Kong, Taiwan, Korea, Japan, China or Singapore.

The charter from Bali to Wakatobi, while priced as an option, is the only way to reasonably get to the resort.

Charter flight return to Bali will be afternoon, so do not book return international flight until later in the evening.

Payments are generally non-refundable. If you sign up and your plans change there may or may not be someone interested in taking your spot. If you cancel without having made all payments it is your responsibility to find someone to pay your obligation in full. It is a very good idea to carry trip insurance to cover such an eventuality.

Trip payments may be made by PayPal or by personal check. PayPal will accept credit card payments, regardless of whether you have a PayPal account. The price is the same regardless of payment method.  Please consider using PayPal, as electronic payment greatly simplifies the work of our volunteers.  Please send PayPal payments to paypal@rainbowdivers.org

All divers on this trip should be comfortable diving in variable conditions and have good buoyancy skills.  Divers are required to carry valid, in-force dive accident insurance, such as Divers' Alert Network (DAN).
