26th-29th June 2008: Tulamben dive trip

[arabianply]

Stayed at Matahari Dive Resort. Nice people and owners, Putu and Suci. Dive guide Komang was good and dedicated. Weather was calm and sunny. Shore dive entry and exits were a bit choppy for me, but probably due to my inexperience. Did four dives a day including night. Three of them at the USS Liberty site. Saw the resident barracuda, but was reluctant to take a very close photo of his "beak". Garden Eels were nice . Took a lot of photos with my Canon A510, mostly out of focus, Anyway here are the best shots i took.

Hope arabianply won't be upset that I am "hijacking" your thread. Didn't want to start another Tulamben trip report thread...
Really appreciate the amount of info that can be found on SB! Anyway, here is my photos & blog Windows Live space
