| 🇫🇷 L’Atoll est superbe. Une piscine géante avec un côté plat et ouvert sur un récif, et de l’autre de hautes collines vertes. Au centre, un îlot où des allemands ont ouvert un hôtel très bien intégré et ont ouvert un centre de plongée. Aurora est à 1 mille nautique de l’îlot, ce qui me laisse dans une liberté totale. Un village se trouve en fond de baie avec une population très discrète, j’irai leur rendre assez souvent. La pêche est la ressource principale de l’Atoll, le tourisme n’a pas vraiment d’impact sur la vie locale mis à part pour les quelques salariés de l’hôtel. Tout semble calme ici, cela faisait bien longtemps que je n’avais pas vécu ça. Peut-être depuis que j’étais rentré en Asie l’année auparavant. En fait je reprends la vie que j’avais laissée en Mélanésie faite de réveils matinaux, d’un bon petit déjeuner, d’un gonflage de bouteille, d’organisation de plongée, de choix de sites et d’une immersion avant 9h00 du matin. Le reste n’étant qu’écriture, repos, photographie et d’une balade de courtoisie et de rencontres en fin d’après-midi. Ca me va comme ça ! |
🇬🇧 The Atoll is superb. A giant pool with a flat side open to a reef, and on the other high green hills. In the center, an island where Germans have opened a very well integrated hotel and have opened a diving center. Aurora is 1 nautical mile from the islet, which leaves me in total freedom. A village is located at the bottom of the bay with a very discreet population, I will go to them quite often. Fishing is the main resource of the Atoll, tourism does not really have an impact on local life apart from the few hotel employees. Everything seems calm here, it had been a long time since I had experienced that. Maybe since I had returned to Asia the year before. In fact, I am resuming the life I had left in Melanesia made of morning awakenings, a good breakfast, bottle inflation, organization of diving, choice of sites and immersion before 9:00 in the morning. The rest being only writing, rest, photography and a courtesy walk and meetings at the end of the afternoon. That’s fine with me! |

Borneo, the sea's insanity is truly an underwater paradise. Your photos are truly breathtaking. I'm from Indonesia, so I don't know much about Borneo, but I've heard its seas are unrivaled in beauty.
Yes it's a great place that I visited by the past. I would want to back there !!!
