Spending our last day in Gili Trawangan, where we have had a 'diveful' time. We got out PADI Advanced Open Water diver's certificate, allowing us to dive down to 40m, and we took our first photos of these lovely species. We did see three reef sharks, but not when we had the camera, believe us if you want!
For all sea lovers, learn to scuba dive, it's awesome!

Gili Trawangan's underwater coral world was badly damaged by fishermen who dynamited the waters in order to catch fish. Now the area is protected, the coral is regrowing, and the fish are returning, Gili Trawangan
