Start your adventure with 2 great dives around Moyo Island in the calm, clear waters of Angel Reef, Little Angel Reef or Panjang Reef at Moyo Island. Massive elephant ear and barrel sponges and beautiful corals offer great homes for massive moray eels, schools of longfin bannerfish and red tooth triggerfish, frogfish, nudibranchs, surgeonfish, snappers and dogtooth tuna. Gentle currents find small white tip sharks snoozing lazily under massive table corals, and the massive garden eel garden on Angel Reef is a sight to behold
A world class night dive along the shallow reefs at Labuanhaji off the Moyo village – frogfish, bobtail squid, cockatoo wasp-fish, daily octopus, devil scorpionfish, nudibrancs galore – you name it, it’s probably there!
Afterwards, Mermaid II will cruise around to Saleh Bay formed by Moyo Island and the long coast of Sumbawa Island for the morning’s adventures with the whale sharks of Saleh Bay
