Diving holiday Flores Boulders / Batu Batu If you travel from Crynoid Corner north along the coast of Nusa Kode towards the bay of Loh Dasami you will come to a point where the coastline turns to the west and the bay opens up. Directly below this point there are several big boulders laying on the bottom. The deepest rock is in about 30 m of water and the shallowest rock is about 8 meters of water. The best point of entry is 100 meters south of the point. The reefs slopes down to a dark sand bottom in 30 to 35meters of water. Here you will find a forest of softcoral growing on the sand . Then swim reef left up to 20 meters or so until you hit the boulders. Along the way check out all the fire urchins for the illusive Coleman Shrimp. A torch helps. This is the best location to find the shrimp in Loh Dasami as there are usually lots of fire urchins in the area. The Boulders themselves have good coral, invertebrate and fish life. Quite often Mobular Mantas can be seen in this area. Also a good night dive.
