From wishing upon a stargazer to protecting sharks and rays

protecting sharks and rays
Welcome to our Weekly Roundup! Last week we had devils and scorpions, wishing upon a stargazer, strange snorkel masks, and Fintastic news as CMS agrees to protecting sharks and rays.

In Bunaken we had devils, scorpions and ghosts after Halloween; in Lembeh we had our guests upon a stargazer; in Lembongan we had masters of camouflage surprising divers; in TEC we look at how to get into TEC diving; and we say goodbye to Holger as he starts to finish his DMT in Bunaken.

Meanwhile, from around the globe we give you some tips on how to use your compact camera for some video; explain what are mandarin fish; give you some air consumption tips to stay down longer; report on the result of the CMS for protecting sharks and rays; explain how to stop thieves when you go on holiday; and give you an idea of a snorkel mask for Xmas!

saturday night beer on bunakenPlus we ask if there is a better way to spend saturday night than with a cold beer after diving in Bunaken, Lemben or Lembongan?

This week in Bunaken... Devils , scorpions and ghosts! After Halloween it seems only natural that we should spot scary creatures this week. On Lekuan 3 an ornate ghost pipefish and several leaf scorpion fish, found and photographed by one of our returning guest Lisa. During the morning boat ride to Mandolin after everyone finished checking gear and enjoying the scenery someone shouts dolphins, dolphins. Everyone rushes to the front and on the surface a pod of spinner dolphins was spotted. As they followed the bow wave of our boat they gave full definition to their namesake leaping from the water and spinning in the air. Isabelle who is completing her divemaster course was conducting a snorkeling exercise on the house reef with Oke, Sandy, Sandy 2 and James took an unexpected twist with Sandy spotting an eagle ray (sometimes referred to as devil rays). After a brief respite watching it swim through the current, normal chaos resumed to conclude her snorkel tour of the reef. Cracking start to November and can't wait to see what else our divers spot this month.
