Tulamben: Drop Off

Second dive was in Tulamben Drop Off. It was a wall dive site, not far from the beach. Started with a slope than a steep wall covers with corals. Besides amazing coral, fish, nudibranch, and the amazing pygmy seahorse, this reef features an unbelievable landscape sculpted by many overhanging rocks. Visibility was great, and in this spot we experienced thermocline, at the certain depth the water temperature suddenly dropped. We went down up to 30 meters! The deepest that I've ever done. But since it was my first dive there, I've got a bit nervous (especially after knowing that we have dived 30 meters), most of the time my eyes were glued to Komang (our guide)... too nervous to see small animals & details. Definitly need to go back there... Soon!
