Dive Overview
Muck diving is all about spotting weird and wonderful underwater critters, species that you would normally not find during a regular dive. Diving in the Lembeh strait means you are diving with a guide who is trained to show you species such as frog fish, hairy frog fish, mimic octopus, blue ringed octopus, banded sea snake, mandarin fish, orangutan crabs, mantis shrimps and many other critters that are hiding on the black volcanic sand, amongst patches of rubble and coral.
Dive Into Lembeh uses fast twin engine fiberglass speedboats so they can return the resort after every dive. They run Liveaboard style.
