While diving is now a days a safe enough sport, accidents do happen!

8 divers were lost during their dive off Nusa Lembongan a little island a few kilometers away from Bali last Thursday.  The weather was not at its best with reported waves of 3 meters and it would have been safer to report the dive for the following days but divers and the operator didn’t exert prudence this time!

Thankfully, a fisherman boat had decided to change its route that day and found the eight divers floating between the waves some 6 hours later! All of them were safe if not shaken by the experience. They can consider themselves VERY lucky! Read the article. I’m sure they’ll check the weather next time!

Safe diving everyone!
