GOBY A´CRAB
Description: This site is named for the extensive variety of gobys and crabs that can be found there. One of the few dive sites situated far south in Lembeh strait. Excellent coral growth in the shallows, with a steep white sand slope below. Visibilty is generally better then on the dive sites situated in the middel of Lembeh strait. A good mix of muck and coral species, though rarely exceptional in either category, this is still a site which always gets glowing reviews from divers.
Depth: 28 m maximum depth
Boat ride: 25 minute
Primary marine life: Pigmy seahorses, cleaner shrimps, crab eyed gobies, leaf scorpion fish and the occational halimed ghost pipefish.
