Sharks in Indonesia?

[Christian]

Anybody with extensive experience from Indonesian diving that could help me out? Which of these areas would you consider the best for spotting sharks of variuos spieces:

- Komodo
- Alor
- Banda Islands
- Ambon
- Tukang Besi (Wakatobi)

Any place which is good for sharks that I have missed?

cheers

If they did not catch them all since I have been diving there six years ago the Radja Empat islands of Papua (Irian Jaya) must be the place. Counted 12 different species in 3 weeks. Although on other trips there it was much less. Do they have a season? On Halmahera where I used to live the sharkhunters say that they do have a season.
