Fantastic South Lombok Diving at House Reef

south lombok ghost pipe fish
Diving South Lombok at our house reef we’ve spotted a gorgeous white ornate ghost pipe fish. Those amazing little ghost pipe is such a beautiful creature and when the light is right it’s pretty much translucent, and the coolest thing is that it decided to hang around and show itself when we dive our South Lombok house reef.

We have been doing some exploration diving around the southern Gilis to see if we can add on to our multitude of South Lombok dive sites and it looks like we might have found a new dive site to add to the list. Our South Lombok guides came back from diving the southern Gilis after having explored a few dive sites with stories of excellent visibility, unbelievably colorful reefs, frog fish, octopus, cuttle fish, nudibranches, more ghost pipe fish, squid and other discoveries while diving the South Gilis. We still need to dive these new South Lombok dive sites some more and get our bearings straight, but I think soon we’ll be able to add on the our southern Gili dive sites.

Apart from exploring new South Lombok dive sites our guides and our crew have also been doing some training, which is always good for some fun and good laughs. We’ve been brushing up on our crew’s English skills, my Bahasa, some dive theory, and pretty much everything in-between. Diving here in South Lombok we’re actually quite lucky to have such a motivated, fun and enthusiastic crew, but not only that, in general they’re just plain a awesome team.

Have had very little rain to no rain this week and the visibility is stable at around 20m. Hardly any current with no waves have been making it great South Lombok diving.
