snorkel day trip from Gilis T island

by sfphototraveller

I went on a snorkel say trip when i stayed at gilis T island.I walked to the beach where the boat picked us up which had a glass bottom to see fish.Saw lots of fish very clear water. they made us wear floatation vest. You can rent mask and fins right before you board boat. Then they took us to the smaller gilis island for lunch we had to pay for our own lunch, service was slow because it was very crowded.I did not bring a waterproof cam but enjoyed the crystal clear water and colorful fish in the ocean.

Sailing the Seas in Indonesia

by balisunshine

Boat lover that I am,there was a moment thatI was looking for a boat to charter.Had a real hard time finding 'the' right one.I actually gave up.I do have a friend who has tried a boat hereand another one there, but haven't heard of the best results, yet.So, if anyone out there happens to find a first-class vessel out there, please do let me know!If not, one that looks good by the brochure isOmbak Putih Cruises.They visit locations such as;Sumatra, Java, Kalimantan, Lombak, Sumbawa, Komodo, Sumba, Flores, Suluwasi, Alor, Ambn, Irian Jaya.Now that is sailing!!!Sailing is recommended of course,during the seasons where there is wind!Duh!!!Otherwise....it's just motoring along.Not as attractive.This would be from April until the end of Octoberand from November until January.If you are a diver,definitely Indonesia is a place to check outsome of the best diversity of fishes a coral.Happy...

Sao Wisata Resort, Maumere

Waiara is a good place for scuba diving. Although the reefs were badly damaged in the 1992 earthquake and tidal wave, there is a large fish population. And as there are not many tourists, you have it all for yourself.We didn't go diving as I'm not very fond of this activity. The entire staff was looking after us: the six diving instructors,one young man who looked after the boat,two waiters,the cook,a receptionist, a student of the hotel school,and the owner of the place.They all tried to persuade us to have a dive. We resisted the temptation, and were sitting on the beach enjoying the view. In the end they gave up, but they looked very disappointed when we left the grounds.The village is a five-minute walk away. Along the way, children and adults were very much interested in us, 'orang belanda'. Most Indonesians still like us Dutch. A little girl came up to me and touched my arm. I am...
