Find the Mola Mola!

Would you like to scuba dive with Mola Mola in Bali? The Mola Mola is one of the most interesting creatures that divers will ever get the chance to encounter.
And while these fish are found in various dive sites around the world, one of the most beautiful places to see them is Bali, where clear water awaits you that is filled with coral reef systems that are some of the best in the world.
Scuba diving in Bali will give you the opportunity to encounter many species of marine life, including the elusive Mola Mola.


What is Mola Mola?
The Mola Mola is also frequently referred to as the Ocean Sunfish. It was given this nickname because of the animal's habit to spend quite a bit of time at the surface of the ocean, catching some of the warm rays from the sun, much like a beach goer spends time lying on the sand to get a tan.
Because of the animal's flattened body, you may have heard it called by various other nicknames as well. But even though people may refer to this incredible creature by different names, it certainly does not change the fact that it is one of the most sought-after species of marine life for scuba divers from around the planet.
The Mola Mola has a rough texture, is grey in color, and has a rounded body. In fact, "mola" translates to "millstone" in Latin, so it's no wonder that it was named the mola fish.
Lokasi: Lembongan island, Indonesia

Wonderful Seaweed Farm Nusa Lembongan

Don't miss it, visit seaweed farming at Nusa Lembongan Heading westwards from the Lembongan Village and then following the roads along the coast, you will find a range of green and blue seaweed farming.  The seaweed farming is separated by some ropes and little posts where the algae are tied up on it to grow. Since the mid-1980s, nearly all the community lives off seaweeds, which are exported to the rest of Asia for the cosmetic and food industry. Every household can make one to two million rupiah a month from the red and green algae just enough to survive on these islands, where everything has to be brought from the main land at high cost. Rent motorbike for the day to try and find our perfect beaches. Went around the entire island, saw about different beaches, Nusa Ceningan island is good view to see, Dream beach is nice for relax with a great bar / cafe, Mushroom beach is also nice and snorkeling is ok too.

Euphyllia baliensis is a new large polyp stony coral with extremely thin branches, only found in 27 meters below sea level at Bali, First found in 2011.   We all had a good look at the new  Euphyllia baliensis  with the huge announcement from Conversation International in Spring of 2011 but now the new coral has a name, and a whole lot more details on what makes this coral special. Hailing only from a limited range in Bali,  Euphyllia baliensis  has extremely thin branches, which are well spaced out like a classic branching hammer coral, Euphyllia parancora . Wherea s Euphyllia cristata previoudly had the smallest corallites of all the Euphyllia species, its 20-40mm (0.75 to 1.5 inch) corallites completely dwarf the thinner-than-a-pencil branches of Euphyllia baliensis which clock in at a miniscule 3mm – that’s an eighth of an inch! With branches thinner than an Acropora and corallites on par with the axial tip of some larger staghorn Acros, E...
