Artemis
Why dive here
With 238+ marine species recorded in the area - including blacktip reef sharks, giant moray eels, pygmy seahorses, seahorses and sperm whales - Artemis offers some of Sulawesi's richest reef diving. Water ranges 29-31°C, warmest June, October, November.
Artemis is a lovely wall dive, starting shallow at around three meters near the beach and dropping away beyond our usual recreational limits. We stick to the upper section, usually around 20 meters, where the light still catches the tube sponges and the overhangs create dramatic shadows. Keep an eye out for ghost pipefish tucked away, and we've spotted orangutan crabs on occasion. The site also gives you a good chance to see eagle rays cruising by, alongside the usual schools of fusiliers and batfish Una Una is known for. It’s a comfortable dive, good for photographers who like to take their time along a reef wall.
