Komodo National Park Snorkeling Tour, 2018 Trip Report

Komodo 2018 trip report.Two of my top five snorkel sites in the world, in terms of deliverability, are found on our Komodo National Park snorkeling tour. On our latest departure, I had one of the best snorkel sessions on each of these sites that I have ever had. Should I just stop here and show the pictures? And a bit of fluorescence and some of the eight mantas that we snorkeled with as well? I guess I should but just a little bit more gushing at the trip we just had to Komodo. The mantas in Golden Passage stayed with us long enough for us to take a breather on the boat and jump in with them again a bit later! And I finally  got my yellow seahorse. I’ve seen them a few times before, but never with a camera :-)!
