It's been a while since my last post, mostly lurking from the shadows. I'm on Bali as last location of our trip in indonesia. Now we've all heard about dynamite fishing but today is saw a different kind of terrible.
So we went snorkeling on a glass bottom boat and on the way back we went through very shallow water.
(20-30 cm or 1 foot) Sometimes it would get so shallow that we would scrape across the rocks and through the glass bottom you could just see the dead coral on the side( gee I wonder how that happened). Same goes for the soft coral which the engine just mowed down as we went across, they even mowed down a starfish.
Like I said I knew they didn't really care about the reefs, but I didn't expect this.
Btw the snorkeling was awful since all the reefs were dead.
Pardon any typos and punctuation mistakes.
