Starting my Divemaster Training in Nusa Lembongan My name is Damien, from France, and I started my PADI Divemaster internship a few days ago at Two Fish Divers Resort on Nusa Lembongan. I was always told that for a Divemaster Internship, you don’t want to choose just a Dive Center but also a mentor. Unfortunately,…
In amongst the beautiful sloping corals of South Lombok’s stunning reefs, we also have a few sandy patches where we can look for macro critters. We usually glide pretty close to the sand to find these smaller animals but over the past week we’ve had good reason to stay a little higher in the water…
