Diving, sunset, fullmoon, beaches

The last days have been filled with diving. Today I take a day without diving, enjoying the great atmosphere on Koh Tao. I have also been very active getting connections for freelance work while I still wait for the publishing company to evaluate my finalised manuscript.

I have been diving at (my personal dive site) Chumphon, which is so beautiful these days.

Some of the photos are from yesterday's full-day diving trip which went to Sail Rock. One of the best dive sites around here. There is still quite some wind which you can see from the photos... Luckily I have never been seasick in my life. It seems to be very difficult for me to become seasick. I also not use seasick tablets like many other instructors and divers. And I took a diver who was feeding the fish unintentionally just before we went diving. The good thing is that as soon as you are in the water, most people stop being seasick. So the trick is to get in the water as quickly as possible - and ideally below water - if you have a tendency to become seasick ;o).

Other photos are of the absolutely gorgeous Island right next to Koh Tao, called Koh Nang Yuan, where many diving trips also go to. They have a truly awesome beach-strip with water on both sides. I have been diving probably 100 times next to this Island, but the funny thing is that I have never set foot on the island (unless sitting in 2 meter water on the beach counts ;o).

Further photos show the coming full moon, as well as a few of the usual beautiful sunsets here on Koh Tao.

Finally, a few photos from the fire dancers on the famous Lotus Bar....
