Ring of Fire - scuba diving in Indonesia´s Banda Sea (4K)
The Banda Sea is like an ocean inside the world of Indonesia. With very deep waters and volcanic islands which are part of the famous Pacific Ring of Fire they offer fantastic moments under water.
In the last couple of years, some divesites in this area have been newly discovered as hammerhead places! That´s what I wanted to see and that is what I could see on my liveaboard tour in November 2018. Enjoy my trip report!

The reefs of Indonesia. As colorful as ever. Full of amazing sea creatures. And in the last couple of years, some new actors appeared on stage. The schooling hammerheads in the Banda Sea.
Welcome to Ambon. And welcome onboard the Tidak Apapa. First let´s get into details.
You may find your Queen of Hearts, or the lost time, but You WILL definetely see a lot of critters when your are muckdiving in the bay of Ambon.
You find moray eels, frog-, stone- and leaf fish, different species crustaceans, cuttlefishes and seahorses - and with a bit of luck, you even find some of the elusive rhinopias.
After one night of sailing we reach the waters of Nusa Laut.
In particular a place called The Arche deserves more than one dive only. This vertical wall is full of corals and macro life.
Nailaka. One of the most western islands of the Banda group. The bestplace for just keeping your mouth shut.
Now it´s getting very special. Now we are in the volcanic Ring of Fire and Manuk Island lies in front of us.
Manuk is special for many reasons. Since it is a volcanic place, the sea floor has a built-in floor heating. Making the dark sand much warmer than the water.
Even more special is the huge number of sea snakes that live in this area.
On one dive you may encounter just five to ten specimen, but on the next one you may easily meet more than one hundred.
Leave it or love it as much as some snakes love the dome port of your camera.
That´s all? No. Manuk Island is one of the best places in the Banda Sea to observe schooling hammerhead sharks.
They show up in late afternoon, when cold currents from the deep are hitting the divesite Manuk Ridge.
And yes, this is really a tiger shark. In Indonesia.
Nil Desperandum. Never give up. The southernmost destination of our cruise. Where you hover over the reef like a hawskbill turtle looking for food.
Like Nil Desperandum also Hatta looks like a classic coral reef. Rising from very deep waters, reaching up to the waterline.
Snoop Dogg is in da reef! No, he is not. When sponges are spawning, their eggs and sperm is covering the scenery like smoke in the water. And it happens without any magic.
Close to the Volcano Gunang Api, you find a small rock. Batu Kapal. You dive on three small reefs, which all host host a truely amazing variety of many different species. Here you could meet animals that you don´t find everywhere, like the spotted soupfish or even the very tiny boxer crab.
We are already heading towards Ambon again. But one really great dive site is still to come. And this is it – Suanggi.
Where did these guys come from?
It´s pretty remarkable that just within very few years, so many hammerhead sites have been found in Indonesia´s Banda Sea.
Anyway, let´s hope that at least some of these places will become protected areas in future.
Scuba Diving in Ambon, Maluku
I wasn't able to sleep so I decided to make this video. Here is my first ever video on Youtube!!
The clips are originally taken by Om Angga Ltc (from Ocean Traveller) during the dive in Ambon. Dive spot : ???, probably in Morela. #cmiiw
Btw, sorry if my editing skill is not good. This thing is kind of new for me though. But I'm very excited to make videos like this. Because there are lots of awesome videos about all the beautiful places in Indonesia, but very little about Ambon. I made this video to show in the best possible way how beautiful Ambon really is, especially under the sea. Also to let people know that Ambon is now a safe destination to visit. So, #AyoKeMaluku!
I hope you enjoy! ^_^

DIVE TRIP BANDA NEIRA-AMBON FULL VIDEO (2015)
Banda Neira
Banda Neira or Banda Naira is one of ten volcanic islands in the Banda Archipelago in the Maluku province, in eastern Indonesia. The Banda Islands, probably better known as the fabled Spice Islands of ancient times, are covered with towering, aromatic, tropical-evergreens. The Myristica Trees, indigenous to the Banda Islands, are the source of two rare and lucrative spices: nutmeg and mace, once found exclusively on the Banda Islands. A sparkling, sapphire sea surrounds these already incredible islands, brimming with exquisite corals and abundant ocean life, making the Banda Islands not only a historically significant destination, but also an internationally recognized diving spot
