Along the North Sulawesi coastline, a breathtaking underwater landscape unfolds. Here, coral slopes cascade into vibrant gardens, interspersed with sandy patches and coral formations known as bommies. These natural structures are bustling with an extraordinary array of reef life.
In this marine sanctuary, time seems to stand still as you explore these pockets of biodiversity. Amidst the bommies, glassfish dart and lionfish prowl, while stonefish and scorpionfish master the art of camouflage, lying in ambush for their next meal. The leaf scorpionfish, with its delicate, leaf-like appearance, sways gracefully to the rhythm of the ocean’s gentle currents.
