Diving in Southeast Asia. David Espinosa
drops to a sand slope at 50 plus meters. At these depths, schooling jackfish, snappers and fusiliers swim in the currents, which can gust up to 2 knots. If the current is running, divers can drift to either side of the point to finish the dive in peace. The wall is even topped by a large rock, home to nudibranchs, leaf scorpionfish and even the blue ringed octopus.
Pertamina Pier is in the harbor, only minutes away from the town of Kalabahi. This black sand slope sits at the base of the old Pertamina Pier and is home to a fantastic range of muck critters—anything from seahorses to ghost pipefish, the wonderpuss, juvenile batfish in the seagrass to the east and harlequin shrimp at various depths. Though the visibility is typically poor, this is still an awesome dive! At night it only gets better because stargazers, Pegasus sea moths and bizarre moray eels come out to play.
