Komodo Dive trip

In December-January, 2014- 2015, we went on a scuba diving trip to Komodo, Indonesia. It was 10 days on a livaboard run by Aggressor fleet on a yacht called Komodo Dancer. We started at Labuan Bajo (LBJ) on Flores Island in the East Nusa Tenggara province in Indonesia on Monday 22/12/14 and finished in Bali on 1/1/15. Here are a selection of the photos and videos with some limited explanations. The photos and videos were taken with Cannon Power shot D30 which, without an underwater housing, can go to an impressive 25 m  – actually due to a slight miscalculation I took it 30m and it survived.

Here’s me :-

These clown fish were arguing over who owns the anemone  -see finding Nemo

Clown fish fight!

The dragons who hung out by the kitchen on Komodo island – it was just the smell that attracted them – they were not fed.

Here’s a movie of a cuttle fish just at the end you can see it change colour.

The dive trip ended on new years day in Bali and the next day we returned to Perth.
