Camps International Group Api-Api August 2016
Group Api-Api (the original name for Kota Kinabalu, the city capital of Sabah/“Api” is “Fire” in Malay) is the last of our Camps International groups this summer to camp at our Gaya Island Beach House for a few nights – and it all went by so fast! Just as the awesome groups before them, they will go for a try dive on our very popular PADI Discover Scuba program and continue to qualify in the Open Water Course or enjoy other super fun island activities such as snorkelling, sea kayaking and jungle trekking.
Our team of PADI Pro Divers will supervise all island activities to maintain our high standards in safety, and in each activity they experience, they will find themselves appreciating their natural environment much more than ever! Inspiring others to contribute their own action of marine conservation is a passion of ours and it’s been more than satisfying to see their commitment to the Project AWARE movement these last several weeks! As soon as the “Fiery” Api Api leave the island, we’ll be waiting for their return, counting the days until NEXT summer!
