These two islands and two small rocks between Misool and Halmahera are the perfect spot to spend the day diving in sloping reefs full of soft and hard coral bommies. When the currents are running, the dive sites can be very fishy, and possible to see dogtooth tunas passing by. Cruise overnight to Patintie.
We will spend the next two days in the south of Halmahera. Here, two large pinnacles break the surface and are excellent dive sites due to the amount of schooling fish as well as the healthy state of the soft corals. Strong currents here will dictate when you will dive. Cruise overnight to Goraici Islands.
