Yesterday we hired a huge 20m catamaran 'Aneecha' and ventured over to Nusa Lembongan, we had an unforgettable day. The weather was perfect. No swell. No wind. These conditions allowed for some of the best snorkelling I've ever done in my life. We were dropped off on the western side of Nusa Lembongan Island and drifted about 2km with the south setting current in Badung Strait- barely having to use our flippers. We had two dive masters from Bali Scuba for the day and their local knowledge and first hand experience in these waters was invaluable. Taking someone with this experience along for the day is highly recommended, as the currents can get up to 8 or so knots in the strait!

I learned a very interesting fact about the area between Bali and Nusa Lembongan yesterday. Have you ever heard about the Wallace Line? Read about it HERE. 

Ooh, I just read the weather report for home in Sydney. Not nice! Maybe a good excuse to check out your next surf trip at Perfect Wave Travel. While you're at it go to SILathletics and pick yourself up one of their stylin' surf shirts, perfect for the tropics. Remember we have another one to give away, just hit us back with the colours the surf shirt comes in, find the answer- HERE.

Bill is back with you tomorrow – From Bali, Brad!
