# Worth risking a dive trip to Santo in early November? Country forums / Pacific Islands & Papua New Guinea
oomla2 23:24 UTC 23 May 2011 | Hello all, sorry if this is a re-post, my original version didn't seem to take! Wondering whether it's worth risking a trip to go diving in Santo in Vanuatu in early November. I know it's best to go May - October but it's not looking good for me to be able to make it then. Just wondering whether the weather turns on a dime to churn up the water or if it's a gradual change, and thus we might get 50% good diving in. Follow on question - There's a very small chance I could go in late October - are the chances good that the weather be much beater for diving if I did? Thanks in advance for your advice! T. |

FWIW, I visited Santo in December and had great weather, with many people diving happily. Obviously no one can predict the actual weather during your visit. | 1
