Diving medicine in the Maldives

A week has soon passed on the Bandos Island Resort, Maldives. This is a stunning island fullfilling all imaginary thoughts one might have about a tropical paradise. Although the weather gods have played with a nice mix of heavy tropical rain, gusty warm winds and scorcing sun, it hasn´t really mattered as the first days were mostly spent either in a lecture room or diving. From today the program has eased up slightly as we start practical excercises. This has also been the first realy sunny day; Perfect;) High season starts in a couple of days, ofte correlated to stabilizing of the weather.
