    StandoutExceptional marine biodiversity

    Gabet, on Sulawesi, is a solid choice for a drift dive. We often find ourselves gliding past walls covered in soft corals here, with plenty of schooling fusiliers and the occasional reef shark cruising by in the blue. It’s a good spot for intermediate divers who appreciate a relaxed current and want to cover some ground underwater.
