Lekuan Walls

The Lekuan sections are Bunaken's signature: kilometer-scale walls that start at snorkel depth and drop into indigo, dived as slow drifts past a running frieze of sponges, soft corals, and fans. Green turtles are the constant, wedged on ledges or rising lazily along the face, some of them old and enormous. Banded sea kraits stitch through the crevices, Napoleon wrasse make wide passes in the blue, and pyramid butterflyfish feed in shimmering columns off the wall. Down-reef, whitetips patrol the sand chutes. Depth is entirely elective, which lets new divers and photographers share the same profile happily. It is the park's essential dive, and repeat visits keep paying.

Khoảnh khắc bạn đến vì nó: Turtles at close range in quantity; vertical drop-offs from snorkel depth; sea kraits and Napoleon wrasse.

Địa hình: Sheer coral wall in three named sections along Bunaken's south coast, cut with crevices and chimneys.

Dòng chảy: Typically a slow drift along the face; currents strengthen toward the ends of the wall on spring tides.

Nguy hiểm cần lưu ý: A bottomless wall invites depth creep; set limits and watch the group, not just the scenery.

Bảo tồn: Mooring buoys and park patrols protect the wall; the entry-tag fee funds them.

Nitrox: Đáng dùng ở đây — các hồ sơ nằm trong khoảng độ sâu mà nitrox có thể kéo dài thời gian không dừng một cách thực sự có ý nghĩa (khi đã được đào tạo sử dụng).
