Last week we had pilot whales, mating mantas, rebreather diving and diving in the coral triangle! In Bunaken we had pilot whales and a whale shark; in Lembongan we manta’s mating in a train; in TEC we had lots of rebreather diving in Bunaken; and we have reports from our two DMT interns in Bunaken and Lembongan, plus a congrats to our new Instructor.
Meanwhile, from around the globe we offer you some more tips for taking a better photo; give you some interesting facts about frogfish; announce that all our resorts are ready to teach the new PADI Open Water Course; describe what it means for us to be in the Coral Triangle; share with you the future of family flying; and describe the type of BCDs that are available.
Plus, here is a photo of an evening beer time in Bunaken – beautiful dusk with high tide, full moon and a cold bintang in our beach cafe – wish you were here in Bunaken?
Happy diving!

Rebreather Diving in Bunaken!The last couple weeks out here in North Sulawesi on Bunaken the Blue Label Team has been having some amazing rebreather wreck diving. First there was Pek from Singapore diving on for a week on our rented MEG CCR, then we welcomed Anthony from Australia who brought along his own Pathfinder CCR. These past few days, Ben from Thailand joined the world of silent diving when he took the Poseidon MK6 course. |
