Behind the scenes we’ve had a busy couple of months technical diving in Bali and Lombok. At our Amed centre, we hosted our first DMT Tech internship, added gas blending facilities, taught just under 20 courses – and found time for a little bit of exploration as well. Divemaster Tech internship Two Fish offers a…
This week in Lembongan some of our guests had an amazing dive at Manta Point and discovered a pretty rare species of sharks: a Wobbegong. Wobbegongs are bottom-dwelling sharks and pretty hard to spot, because they are very well camouflaged and rest on sea floors or hide under rocks. Their symmetrical pattern resembles a carpet…
This week in Amed, we encountered the very in demand Mimic Octopus; a “must-have” subject for underwater photographers, our specialty here in Amed. It holds this name because of its ability to impersonate other local species by changing its skin color and texture and literally blend with its environment. All thanks to what is called the…
“Sometimes the best decisions happen when you just say let’s go for it.” Marie-Lise Roux used this phrase when she invited us to attend a second Instructor Development Course (IDC) that Two Fish Divers added to be taught in Lembongan. She explained in her e-mail that due to the popularity of the last IDC, a…
This week in Amed, our excellent PADI Divemaster trainee, Nathan Wong, managed to get a close-up picture of an Idiomysis. The good eye of our Dive Guide Dr Baron helped us find this very, but I mean, very tiny crustacean during a Muck Dive on our House Reef – right in front of the resort. Nathan…

There were mantas everywhere and we could see them from every possible angle. These creatures are essentially channel feeders and eat an extensive amount of zooplankton. Rather…
This week in Amed…we spotted one of the cutest thing ever, a Juvenile Yellow Boxfish, during an exploration dive with our PADI Divemaster’s trainees on the house reef. On our way up from a Deep Dive, we managed to cross this little fella; and by “Little”, I mean “tiny”; this one was about 1 cm.…
This weeks our guests were fascinated by a beautiful lionfish that was flying over the reef of the North part of Nusa Penida. Normally they are hiding in little caves under rocks and barely move but our guests Saskia and Sarah from Germany had the pleasure to watch the little creature for a couple of minutes…
