Diving holiday Indonesia Bunaken Batas Kota, which means city border. The dive starts on a sandy flat where at least one hundred coral frames are planted in neat and tidy rows. To the west just past the sandy flat the natural reef emerges. From 23ft (7m) down to 65ft (20m), impressive stands of Acropora are mixed with other branching and plating corals. You could easily spend an entire dive circles around a few hundred meters, peeking between layers of corals, and stumbling upon micro habitats. You can also find toadstool leathers strewn about sandy patches between the reef. Even the most season corals spotting experts will be amazed at the diversity. Vincent Chalias spotted this rare Acropora multiacuta coral while diving at Batas Kota.
