Now it’s Christmas and another year at NAD-Lembeh is about to end. I don’t do calendars – but i still want to post some of my favourite images of 2014. And because it is not a calendar i took the freedom to choose 3 photos per month and make a little “36 Images Film Roll”. So…
DetailsTo be able to offer our 2:1 Ratio (2 Guests with one Diveguide) at the quality level our guests are used to we not only had to find some new guides – we had to find some really good ones. So let us introduce the latest three additions to our Dive Team (from left to right): Jony, Tamrin…
DetailsSince this April we were running a trial on our “2:1” Dive Guide Ratio which was then permanently implemented this summer. But still a lot of people are coming into our resort not knowing about this at all. Well … Good things you can’t say often enough. So here one more time: At NAD-Lembeh we offer a…
DetailsDive, Dive, Eat, Dive, Dive, Eat, Download Photos, Sleep … The Lembeh Dive Day mainly consists of Diving. Because People that come to Lembeh mainly want two things: Critters & Photos.

DetailsIt is late November again, Christmas is coming closer again … and again we found a new Rhinopias in Lembeh Strait. This time it is a juvenile Weedy Scorpionfish (Rhinopias frondosa) – red colour and still just over the size of a matchbox. We’ll try to keep it secret as long as possible and of course…
DetailsFor UW Photographers Flasher Wrasses are very popular and hated subjects at the same time. Because they are very beautiful but also very tricky to shoot and demand a lot of skill and patience. The Flasher Wrasses swim in the water column, frequently change speed and direction and the males display their beautiful colour pattern…
DetailsEven though we like toys really a lot, this is post is not about “my lens is longer than your lens” (well … maybe a bit) but something i always wanted to try: A Mini Review about the practicability of a longer Macro like the SIGMA 150mm Macro or the Canon 180 Macro on APS-C for diving in…
DetailsFrogfish, Frogfish, Frogfish, Octopus and then two Frogfishes next to each other: These are moments that turn a muck dive into real Lembeh Muck Dives. The famous beautiful black sand slopes here in Lembeh usually show cycles of extreme critter density which follow after slower periods. This applies to all Muck Dives here: They might…
