Scuba Highlights
The Lembeh Dive Resort operates three full-service boats. This purpose-built boat is famous for muck diving into black volcanic sand. The purpose-built boats return to the Lembeh Dive Resort after each dive allowing photographers to make changes to their equipment and divers to relax. The resort offers a guide in the ratio of 3:1. The custom-made boats are spacious and have everything you need from coffee and tea makers to snacks, towels, and emergency oxygen.
Lembeh Dive Resort offers a range of PADI approved courses, including photography certification. PADI certification is also available for diving education. Nitrox and NAD’s dedicated waterproof cameras are available on rent. Furthermore, underwater highlights are numerous too; mimic octopus, mandarin fish, hairy frogfish, water snakes, sea moths, cardinalfish, stargazers, squids, shrimp, Pegasus, seahorses, cuttlefish, and a whole lot more.
Lembeh Dive Resort is available all year. The resort temperature varies from 26 to 29 degrees Celcius; this is colder than Bunaken. We recommend divers wear 5 mm wetsuits during diving activities. Visibility also varies at different times of the year in various sites.
Lembeh Dive Resort has a full-time biologist and researchers on site who invest a considerable amount of time researching the critters and marine life of Lembeh. The resort indulges itself to communal activities to help create a sustainable environment for marine life.
Lembeh Strait has already been established as the mecca of what is known as muck or critterdiving. Professional photographers and film crews are regular visitors to the strait, shooting award-winning images of the extraordinary inhabitants that mesmerize divers dive after dive.
