The Emperor Shrimp hitching a ride on the Chromodoris kunei. The Pontohi
Pygmy Seahorse, what a find and how lucky we were, we were just going
into decompression on our last dive of our 2011 trip when we came upon
this beautiful Pygmy, we were low on air but the chance to get a few
shots of this recently discovered species was overwhelming, the shots i
managed to get were hurried and desperate, this is about as good as i
could get under the circumstances. The Pontohi was not on a Gorgonian
like other Pygmy's but was in amongst the soft corals on a wall at about
16 metres. |

KBR or Kungkungan Bay Resort is one of the first resort's to operate in the Strait's, it has a great location and the cottages are situated nicely into the bottom of the hillside. The now famous timber building is the main restaurant and sits over the water. Their diving regime is very good and they have excellent facilities. |

The dangerous Devil, one of the ugliest creatures under the sea. | Very pleased with this shot, so difficult to get, a lot of patience required along with being quite still and quiet.. | We dont see these very often, check out the barrel sponges to find them hiding in the shadows. |
