Welcome to Wet’n'Dry!
Why dive Christmas Island?
Christmas Island may not show up on many maps, but it definitely registers on the radar of all serious divers. On Christmas Island, divers are spoilt by consistently amazing visibility, in calm waters, along unspoilt coral gardens, with an abundance of fish.

Whats New at Wet n Dry
Welcome Lumi Venus Hamanaka!
May 31st, 2011
29th August saw the safe and speedy arrival of our beautiful little girl, Lumi. A curious and happy little girl, who has already started swimming lessons!
Whilst the arrival of Lumi has kept us busy topside, the weather has kept us guessing on the water. Bad weather rained out much of November, December, January and Febuary, with swell sending us to the East side of the island for safe boat launching at Ethyl beach. The biggest ‘wet’ we have seen in around 10 years, has kept our rainforest lush and green for the entire year.
Whilst the range of sites around this side is limited, it meant that Lynny, Hama and divers had their eyes peeled even closer to what they could see, resulting in the discovery of some rare and new species of nudibranch (5mm-5cm). Most of these had never before been recorded on Christmas Island!
Despite the rain, whalesharks have still graced us with their presence, with 39 sightings for the season, many of which were little later than normal. The last sighting was 28th May. Let’s hope Ningaloo get some whalesharks for their festival this year.
The Wet seems to have finally subsided (mid-May,) but we are still getting surprisingly ‘wet’ season-like showers and cloud formation. Who knows what the weather will bring next? Happy diving!
