Lembeh StraitNorth Sulawesi, Indonesia

Resident and reliably found by guides year-round. Lembeh is the single most reliable place in the world for this animal.

residentnatural

Open year-round. The strait is narrow and sheltered on both sides, so weather rarely stops diving. Jul-Aug brings cooler nutrient-rich water which lowers visibility but is reported to increase critter activity, making the 'worst' visibility months arguably the best diving months.
