Rescue

Exciting times at Manta Point. Not only did we see 'dancing' Mantas, we think that it may be some kind of mating ritual, but we rescued 2 fishermen from Java who had been sitting on the beach for 3 nights, without food or water, after their boat engine broke down. No-one else had come to their aid, they had managed to survive by drinking rain water. We've brought them in to the resort, got them showered, clean clothes, some light food and water, and hopefully they will have a full recovery from their ordeal!!

Tulamben

Brilliant day at Tulamben yesterday. First dive at the Drop off, visibility 10 metres +, all the usual reef fish, unusual nudi found (sorry no photos). Second and third dive at the USAT Liberty wreck. Vis is much better than the last time we were here. Waves and surge were bigger but then its a full moon today. Spotted Barracuda, bumpheads, frogfish, garden eels, nice surface interval at the restaurant then another dive through the swim throughs. All in all, a good diving day, and a sleepy journey back to Padang Bai for the divers.

Today is another glorious day in Padang Bai. The rainy season really hasn't happened yet, maybe El Nino is to blame, but it means that the water temperatures are warm (28 degrees C) and the visibility is great. In the next few days we will be diving over at Tulamben Liberty wreck, where we know the water will not be as clear as it could be, due to river run-off. However, we expect the usual large ball of schooling Jacks, large Barracuda, and friendly Surgeonfish. Come join us!
