Bunaken & Lembeh

[gurselen]

Hi,
We have plan to go to Bunaken and Lembeh in first half of january 2006. It will be a 10days visit. Any comments about the Living Colours Diving and Two Fish Divers, their resorts and the climate as well...
Best fishes to all...

Two Fish divers ( http://twofishdivers.com/index.html ) runs an excellent dive operation. They have recently added a second operation on Lembeh Island in addition to their Bunaken Island operation. I spent a month on Bunaken in 2004 and 2005. I will be posting my 2005 report soon.

The dive guides are excellent. And less than four divers per guide. It makes a big difference. Generally they try to keep you with the same guide for your whole trip whenever possible.

you can find my 2004 Trip report on Scubaboard or directly at

I hope to fiinsh the 2005 report in the next few days and post it

just come back from Bunaken..had more than 25 dives both in Bunaken and lembeh..previously I dived in maldives, sıpadan-kapalai, red sea, andaman, cuba, pemba (tanzania) and I can say those dives were my best dives I had ever...
