SCUBA DIVING INDONESIA PART 2 | KOMODO DIVE RESORT | HEAVEN ON EARTH

Whenever I heard the word ‘Komodo’, my imagination transported me back to a time long forgotten when dinosaurs roamed the earth and dragons were uber cool..!
However, after visiting Komodo for the first time, these islands scattered across the turquoise waters of Indonesia will forever remind me of the rich and diverse marine creatures that never ceased to amaze us!
Candy crabs and ghost pipefish mingle amongst the soft corals, while turtles are absolutely EVERYWHERE! If you managed to go a dive without seeing one you must have had your eyes closed!
And if it’s current diving you like then look no further! You often find that the large pelagics such as manta ray adore the fast-paced water - seemingly motionless while the divers around them are struggling to stop their regulator embedding itself in their cheek.
Here you will find a number of dive sites that offer plenty of close up sighting of manta and sharks, but in a bid to cast your imagination to the land that time forgot make sure you go and check out the dragons… They are AMAZING!

Adrian Pickering absolutely stunning place - one of our favourites! In fact - literally 10 mins ago we hung a canvas on the wall at home of one of our drone shots at Komodo Dive Resort!

Wow. What are the small Black & White fish that swim together? Seen them in the Red Sea only once & always wondered?
Lucky you too👌

Do you mean the fish at 4:23? These are striped eel catfish. Yes, you'll definitely have seen these in the Red Sea for sure!
