2nd East Lembeh Trip in October
On the 15th we went on our second East Lembeh Trip for this month and we had a blast again – with Big Fish on all dives: Sharks, Eagle Rays, Giant Trevallies, fantastic Coral, cool Canyons and spectacular walls. And we even found a couple of Halimeda Ghostpipefish on the third dive. In between dives we had a picnic on the beach and fresh coconuts from the palmtrees. And not to forget: A coolbox with ice cold beers for the way back to the resort … we will keep doing these trips!
