It was just a three hours trip boat-car-boat from Bunaken to Lembeh yesterday, but the underwater world could not be more different.
Bunaken is vertical walls, Lembeh is Critters Galore, muck diving, treasure hunt.
Nightdives are a MUST here.
You crawl along the sea floor with your camera ready.
Meet really weird animals, like the stargazer.
The group is in a good mood, diving is fun!
Lots of frog fish, too, flamboyant cuttlefish, strange Nudibranchs, shrimps, hermit crabs, electric crabs, and creatures I can't even recall the names of.
Macro heaven...

We have four dives a day, growing together as a group, I still have problems with the names, calling Victor Luis, and Cristina Anna, but this will get better, I know.
One evening we have a barbecue dinner by the pool and bar,
a beautiful tropical night,
My favorite guide Opo turns out to be a passionate singer and guitar player, we all have a lot of fun this night, singing together, drinking local spirits, Arrak with juice, and then Opo even tries to teach Elynn this weird bass guitar/berimbao.
Later she will say she rather goes with her Ukulele, but c'mon, learn something new every day, at least try it !
Sad to see her and Charlton leave, will recall the good times with them in Bunaken and Lembeh!
My favorite dive sites are the Police Pier (also called Bianca, due to the ship that is slowly decaying here),
and Nudi Falls with a beautiful surface spot, natural pool in the shade of trees, very calm,
Moving on to Sorong, Papua Barat, we will complete the group there and head out to the remote waters of Raja Ampat.
See you under water
