Comments Land-based mature diver who has never experienced a dive trip disappointment (400 plus dives)...but Wakatobi deserves special acknowledgement. Do your homework so you know what to expect in the way of sea-life and then be prepared to be stoked daily by the exotic and abundant marine world of Wakatobi. Only rave reviews for facilities, staff, boats, meals,locale and breath-taking beauty of my first juvenile batfish.
