Bunaken Diving
May 23, 2010
Just finished up a couple of days diving around Bunaken Island. It is some really fantastic diving. There are lots of fish, really big turtles, and even a lot of small stuff. After Lembeh, I am getting really into the small stuff!

I’m also staying at Two Fish Divers resort in Bunaken. They are one of only two or three resorts with operations in both locations. The big advantage with this is that I didn’t have to stop diving hours before the transfer so my gear would have time to dry out before I packed it. Instead, Two Fish puts my wet gear in one of their own day bags for transfer between their resorts along with my luggage.

In addition to convenience, Two Fish is a very nice operation. The accommodation may not be posh, but it’s comfortable and well maintained, as is their equipment. Their staff – not just the dive guides but also the reception and restaurant – are all friendly and helpful.
