Slow down with The Junk after the Singapore F1

The Singapore F1 Grand Prix, taking place on 28 September 2008, is going to be an unique experience – the first ever F1 Grand Prix held at night and for the first time ever hosted on the streets of Singapore.

The region, nay the world, has its eyes fixed on this tiny island state with the big F1 ambition. Millions of F1 fans will flock to Singapore and those who can’t flock will certainly be nailed to the telly for the newest and grandest of all Formula One Grand Prix racing events.

But hang on a second! What is F1 Racing news doing on the Dive The World Blog?

Well, at Dive The World we specialise in unique diving experiences and although you can’t dive the Formula One circuit in Singapore, we certainly can offer you something equally unique on the nearby diving circuit in Thailand to balance your Formula One getaway.

The Junk featured in James Bond's The Man with the Golden Gun

The Junk (also known as June Hong Chiang Lee) is itself a grand and well-known attraction (this is the boat that featured in The Man with the Golden Gun), and Dive The World offers you a special F1 diving cruise to facilitate a gentle come down from your F1 racing rush. It is truly a one of a kind boat with great character and top quality service. Tour leaders Kay and Mick have been on the boat for years, and know the Similan and Surin Islands dive sites as well as anyone. Jamie at Dive The World did 6 trips on The Junk some years ago as a divemaster and can testify to Mick’s great knowledge and passion for marine life.

Departing 1 October 2008, The Junk brings you action of the underwater kind on a 5 day 4 night diving cruise to Thailand’s Southern Islands for 5 days of world class diving action.

Like the Singapore F1 Grand Prix, the price of the dive safari will get your heart racing, as you get a 4 night package for the price of a 3 night package, just for being a sport.
