White Tip Reef Sharks
Our latest Live-Board cruise from Sumbawa Island to Flores, via the Komodo National Park was a great buzz.
We managed to dive on some sites that are often inaccessible due to currents. One of these was GPS Point offshore from Batanta Island, this is a world-class dive with sharks, schooling fish by the hundred, lobsters and clear water. The white tip reef sharks were checking us out really close!

Then there was Makassar Reef with Manta Rays being cleaned right beside us.
One big black manta swam directly over each of us in turn, almost touching our heads with its wing tips
(see video below).

Fish Soup - Komodo
Not forgetting the fish action at Crystal Rock, one of the liveliest dives imaginable; there were snappers, surgeonfish, sweetlips, sharks, soldierfish and scorpionfish and these were just the ones beginning with 'S' !!
