    It's great that Indonesia has kept this area natural and unfished, I'm glad somebody in the world cares enough to look after our beautiful earth.

    Bloody hell mate, you have certainly put the cherry on the icing with this video. The underwater diversity was stunning to watch and to see creatures going about their business was world class photography. Cannot wait for the next one!
