“Sometimes the best decisions happen when you just say let’s go for it.” Marie-Lise Roux used this phrase when she invited us to attend a second Instructor Development Course (IDC) that Two Fish Divers added to be taught in Lembongan. She explained in her e-mail that due to the popularity of the last IDC, a…
This week in Amed, our excellent PADI Divemaster trainee, Nathan Wong, managed to get a close-up picture of an Idiomysis. The good eye of our Dive Guide Dr Baron helped us find this very, but I mean, very tiny crustacean during a Muck Dive on our House Reef – right in front of the resort. Nathan…
