Divers love to see Manta rays, sharks and turtles. Of course, they are incredible creatures and rather easy to spot.
Our Komodo liveaboard guests and day trip divers love to see them and they are on every divers bucket list.
But wait, there is much more to see than the usual “big stuff”. The macro life in South-East Asia’s coral reefs is one of the most diverse world wide.
Komodo, Lembeh, Ambon and Tulamben in Bali are probably the most famous “muck-diving” spots in Indonesia. Muck-diving?
Well, you can also call it macro-diving. Basically it is the art of spotting all the little camouflaged creatures that hide in between hydroids, under rocks or broken coral parts. Might sound boring for some people but once you get hooked, there is no way back.
Especially during night, all the weird Flora and Fauna of Komodo comes alive. Our experienced dive guides on the Komodo liveaboard and day trip boat will be happy to introduce these animals to you. Ever heard of Ghost-pipe fish, pygmy sea horses, banded pipe fish, frog fish, skeleton shrimps?
No? Then it is well time to get under water…
