Lembeh
Lembeh Island and Lembeh Straits are located east of the city of Manado. In the strait between Lembeh and the main island of Sulawesi lies what is today one of the world's strangest, most famous and most powerful diving destinations. Diving here is absolutely wonderful diving and a diving trip here is almost a must for those of you who are avid photographers. If you like macro photography or want to see strange animals, this is one of the best places in the world. You can go here to Lembeh in the northern part of Sulawesi in Indonesia all year round. The diving is always good here and the marine life changes throughout the year. The area of North Sulawesi is generally mountainous and covered in lush tropical greenery.
Boat traffic in the strait from and to the city of Bitung is intense, and at first glance the bottoms in many places look like parts of the Baltic Sea. Here, the most desolate sand, mud and deep bottoms and the feeling "What am I doing here?" occurs easily. Certain times of the year also depart from here liveaboard.
An hour later, almost everyone comes up with a big smile and says it's absolutely amazing. There are occasional wrecks here, really good muck diving as I said but also small walls, slopes and the wildlife is very rich. Almost anything can turn up with luck, even whale sharks, manta rays etc are sometimes seen but that's not why you go here. This is the mecca of macro diving and probably the most famous place in the world for this type of diving.
