チェンデラワシ/Cenderawasih Bay

チェンデラワシダイビング情報
西半分がインドネシア領のニューギニア島はパプアニューギニアと同じく、広大で無垢のダイビングエリアが広がります。ニューギニア島の北西部の東西220km南北100km程の太平洋に開けた湾で湾口付近には湾を塞ぐ形で東西に伸びたビアク等がある。この湾の西側のクワティール湾エリアでは、ほぼ確実に5-8mはあるジンベイザメと遭遇可能です。このエリアではホワイトチップやブラックチップシャーックやウォーキングシャーク(epaulet shark)にも遭遇できます。
ジャカルタ、バリからの距離があり、ここ潜るには最低10日間のクルーズが必要となります。
