It’s taken 2 years so far, but it seems we are finally near the end of this COVID adventure. As a team, the staff and ownership of NAD-Lembeh have had 2 years to reflect on how we want to move forward. The general consensus is we love diving and working with all you lovely guests, so we want to have you back with us as soon as possible! More to come on what the staff have been doing.
