Dear Team Member,

I hope this message finds you healthy and well as many of you celebrate Easter this weekend. We bring you plenty of material to read and watch during the time off. Let’s get straight to it!

ARON DOES PRESENTATION ON TRUK LAGOON AND BIKINI ATOLL

If there is one topic we at the Dirty Dozen Expeditions love to explain, it’s the big differences between our favorite wreck meccas Truk Lagoon and Bikini Atoll. So much so, it’s our go-to presentation when we do talks at dive clubs and tradeshows around the world.

Aron did this presentation online last weekend and it was all recorded for your viewing pleasure. Our cruise director Craig even joined in from Palau. So don’t wait, pop open a cold one and watch it on the link above.

DIRTY DOZEN FEATURED IN DIVE MAGAZINE

Steve Jones is an underwater photographer and journalist, whose award-winning work has been published in over 30 countries during a career spanning 3 decades.

We had the pleasure of hosting Steve during his assignment in Truk Lagoon for Dive Magazine and the results have been published. A whopping 26-page special report where our skipper Martin Cridge takes the reader on a tour of five of his favorite ships, beautifully photographed by Steve.

This is really an excellent article that is not to be missed by Truk Lagoon enthusiasts. You can purchase DIVE Magazine for just 5USD HERE.
