1st Dive at Barracuda point, which was a combination of slopping reef and wall. Depth is about 30 meters. Saw many giant bump head parrot fish, barracudas and even a 2m sea snake. The coral life is rich and well populated with puffer fish, damsels, angels fishes, jacks, and lobsters.
2nd dive at Odessea point 1.this is another muck dive site, which is populated with lionfish, pipe fishes, clown lobsters. Bottom is very fine sand, which if divers not careful, could stir up sand and reduce the visibility.
This trip on the whole is awesome and fun. Great dive sites that never fail to surprise even the most seasoned divers. It just enchanting, a definite must dive place.
Back at the resort at about 14.30hrs, had a quick lunch and shower before we head out to the spa for some good old two hours traditional shiatsu massage in the town. Guess what, it felt great, every joints and contractile organ in body conditioned and toned.
We had seafood dinner at the local restaurant, somewhere in Manado city. Transfers between the resort and Manado city is about 25 minutes by car.
Back to the resort for the grand finale! The usual divers last night brags of what they saw and how awe they are by the variety of creatures of different sizes and shapes.
We are leaving tomorrow afternoon for flight back to Singapore.
Next dive trip in Sipidan, 2 days
