Good to KnowGetting there:Singapore AirlinesFlights from ORTI in Johannesburg and CapeTown International Airport depart everyday. Thereare many airlines that have flights to Indonesiafrom South Africa, however Singapore Airlines wasmy airline of choice when I travelled.From Singapore, take Silk Air - Singapore Airlines’sister airline - to Jakarta, then a localIndonesian airline - Lion Air or Garuda - to Sorong.From Sorong, where MahaRaja Eco Dive Lodgecrew will transport you to the island, a pleasant twohours journey in a longboat. www.singaporeair.comVisa for Singapore and ThailandNo visa is required for South African passportholders. Please check Visa requirements for yourcountry. Note that your passport must be valid for atleast 6 months and have minimum of 2 blank pages.What to takeSingapore and Indonesia are hot and humid all yearround. Lightweight, breathable clothing - especiallypure cotton - is best, with a hat or portable umbrellato protect you from the sun, or a flash rain shower.Consider comfortable closed shoes if you would liketo walk to explore in Singapore or nearby villagesin Indonesia, but sandals or even slip slops willsuffice. As Indonesia is mostly an Islamic country,in villages and cities wear pants longer than yourknees with sleeved, loose tops, to show respect forthe culture. In MahaRaja Eco Dive Lodge, cottonshorts and tops, a sarong or a bathing costume isperfect. Remember your wetsuit or skin for divingor snorkelling.Highly Recommended Accommodation inIndonesiaIf you extend your trip, consider seeing weird andwonderful creatures during muck dives, from Diveinto Lembeh or White Sands Beach Resort in theLembeh Strait. For coral reefs, with pelagics, stay atTasik Ria near to Bunakan Marine National Park,in Northern Sulawesi.www.diveintolembeh.comwww.eco-divers.com/new-eco-divers-resort-lembehwww.tasikria.com36SA&BEYOND
