From May 28 - June 22, 2004 we visited the Indonesian island Bali. After a 13 hours flight from Frankfurt via  Singapore and Jakarta we reached Denpasar at Bali. After further 2 hours transfer we finally arrived in Tulamben. Our hotel, the “Dive Terminal  Resort Tulamben” was equipped with love to the detail. The rooms were airconditioned and high class furnitured in the Indonesian style. The hotel restaurant offered a wide range of local and international  specialties. But even outside the hotel we discovered some nice local restaurants. The integrated dive center was reachable within 1 minute from our room. In addition to uncountable temples, rice terraces and  beaches, Bali offered some highlights under water, we had to discover. Left hand side in front of the hotel just 100 m away we discovered plenty of corals and huge fish schools at the wreck of the “USS  Liberty”. And in the neighbourhood some very rare creatures of marine life like Leaf Fish, Ghostpipe Fish, the very shy Blue Ribbon Eel and last but not least the extremely hard to discover 8 mm small  Pygmae Seahorse. The water temperature varied between 24° and 27°C and the air temperature between 25°C and 30°. The climate in June was quite comfortable and we had some rain in the mountain region almost in the  night.
