Snorkeling and Scuba Diving at Samama Channel

Great divesite for macro photography with sometimes strong currents. But on the other hand big stingrays and sometimes whalesharks. Hard to decide which lens to take. Sandy areas in the middle of that channel which is about 250m wide. Nice reef on the sides. Giant clams, staghorn coral and lots of critters like frogfish, ghost pipefish, flatworms, nudibranch. One can go there by boat on daytrips from Maratua island, from Derawan Island or from Sangalaki Island (which is closest and about 30 minutes away).
