I’m almost finished updating and expanding the guide to Bunaken diving, which means I’m taking my last good look through all the great pictures I managed to get. I’ve already posted a few of the best pictures of the strange and rare critters found around Lembeh and Bunaken, but there are a lot of the less rare "old favorites" as well. Take, for example, this picture of a family of clown fish in their anemone. They really are cute, aren’t they?

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.
