7 years ago By Matthew Meier

This exclusive and unparalleled diving destination is undisputedly ranked first on any serious wreck & technical divers’ bucket list. This is well justified; as nowhere else on earth you will be able to dive such a unique collection of historic battleships, cruisers, as well as the world famous USS Saratoga aircraft carrier with its 270m (888ft.) flight deck. For this reason, Bikini Atoll has been declared the first UNESCO World Heritage site for the Marshall Islands archipelago in 2010.

7 years ago By Matthew Meier

MULTIPLE SPOTS AVAILABLE, APRIL 23 - May 1, 2017 !!! The Solmar V Whale Season was sold out, but some space have just opened up on our April 23 to May 1 trip! A little late in the whale season but frequently, late births in April make for some incredible encounters as the mother waits for the calf to grow strong enough to make the long journey north to their home waters.

But Fernando, our dive guide, told me I had to go.
