    Sangalaki and Maratua: sadness and disappointment in the waters of Borneo

    In the Indonesian archipelago of Derawan in Borneo, the islands of Sangalaki and Maratua are no longer the fabulous diving spots they were in 2013.
    Diving in Kakaban. Borneo, Indonesia. July 2013.

    Multicolored dive on Kakaban reef

    I love the bright colors of coral on a subaquatic blue background. Small immersion, in images, on the splendid reef of the Kakaban island, near Borneo (Indonesia).
    The further you go towards the centre of the lake, the more jellyfish there are. (Kakaban, Borneo, Indonesia, July 2013)

    Kakaban and its lake with jellyfish that don't sting...

    Borneo is adventure! I saw again the Indonesian island of Kakaban and its mysterious jellyfish lake. I even went back to swim there. Video evidence.

    Diving in the blue of Borneo

    I'm coming back from Borneo! Highlight of the trip: the dives in Sipadan, Malaysia ... Yes, for me, Borneo has more the color of the sea than the jungle.

    Excursion to Sangalaki

    A new little film, for lovers of mantas rays ... I finally got down to editing my videos, brought back from Sangalaki! This small Indonesian island, located off Borneo, is part of the archipelago of Derawan, where I stayed for ten days last July.

    Mantas and nudibranchs

    Guilhem, my dive buddy in Derawan (Borneo), was kind enough to send me two underwater videos he made this summer in the sea of Celebes.

    Derawan under water

    Back to Derawan ... under the surface. The reef of the island, even if it is not the most spectacular of the sites of the corner, deserves some dives. The little creatures that I adore abound. But watch out for diving safety ...
    Kakaban Jellyfish

    Kakaban, the island of jellyfish

    It is a desert island in Indonesia near Borneo. In his mangrove necklace, Kakaban holds the water jade of a huge lake, filled with jellyfish ... which do not sting! The proof in video and in photos.
