Explaining Current: Crystal Bay, Nusa Peninda, Bali for Mola Mola sighting

Every year June to Sept, when the cold upwelling water from the ocean flow between islands of Indonesia, Mola Mola (sunfish) follows, and diver from all over the world follow too.
1st thing u saw in the internet about this dive site, is how strong and dangerous the current could be. Understanding it will make diving here safer, of course.
Read more about Indonesian Through Flow, swell and rip current from the internet (or other source) will certainly help the understanding.
In every diving situation, out of air and panic will always be the number one (both in same status) risk, please always know your limit and your air, be prepared for every single dive you are going because... There are current too strong for human to fight, even if u saw the fish doesn't care, cos they don't have out of air situation 🙏

Well done, even though I dived at crystal bay once after my IE in Bali. Your video is still very informative.

Hi! Thanks for the detailed analysis. I am considering shooting a doc about Indonesian waters, I have few questions for you. Is there a way I can contact you directly?

Great to hear about your documentary project, you can write to me on my fb messenger to see if I could answer you on what I know 😊 cos a local indonesian dive guide may know many things better.
