Wall diving with Incredible colour and diversity in warm watter

I have been to many places around Indonesia, but this was my first time in Bunaken. It is mostly walls dives. I found the coral colours to be brilliant. Turtles where everywhere! And focusing in on the many small nudibranchs - could have spend so much time in just a few square meters! Water visibility was tremendous for most every dive (15m to 25m). And the water temperature was fantastic for me as I tend to get cold easily - but not here in 30C water. On the complete opposite end - we did a trash dive for Project Aware. Unfortunately some spots around the area have trash accumulated (but most areas were very clean).

    Underwater paradise
    The reef around Bunaken is rich. Wealth of fauna and flora is attractive for divers as well as snorkellers. We saw a number of groups of giant turtles...! Water is clear and clean. Currents can be strong.

    Outstanding diving and snorkeling
    Been around in the dive and snorkel world. Bunaken is without doubt within the top 5 of my favorites. Easy accessible, by plane and from the main land. Great choice of dive resorts. Personally I prefer to stay on a land based resort in order to have as little impact as possible on the island environment.
