Halmahera Sea didn't really appeal to her.
.... maybe she doesn't know that area very well ....
I was there last april and it was fantastic for coral and fishlife . With clear and warm water .
If you like , you can see my report and photos here in Scubaboard : Trip Report : Weda Resort - Halmahera - April 2019
hope this help .
all my best
