Ron Scholte's dive at Fukui Point on Oct 2, 2009

Description

Diving holiday Indonesia Bunaken Fukui is the only sloping reef in Bunaken, all the other dive sites are walls. It is named after a Japanese diver who found the spot many years ago. There are many beautiful coral gardens as well as some artificial reef formations to help the area recover from previous damage. There is usually zero-mild current but it can get medium-strong especially towards the corner where the cleaning station and corner of the reef is. Here you can see giant clams, sea turtles, large barrel sponges, cabbage coral, garden eels, many different reef fish, blue spotted rays, octopus, nudibranchs etc. Out close to the pinnacle and corner there more chance of seeing something bigger swimming past or being cleaned like eagle rays, giant barracuda, giant trevally, tuna etc.
