Brilliant Day

Repeat divers to Gorontalo picked a brilliant day to return here to dive. Visibility has been running around 25 meters lately. But today it jumped a notch to 30 meters at Chimneys dive site where we found a rare polyclad flatworm (Acanthozoon sp.) spiraling down the wall like an undulating ribbon. Miguel’s Diving actually has a picture of this beautiful creature taken by Massimo Boyer on display in our picture frame at Gorontalo’s airport. Its black surface is edged in white and dotted with cream and yellow spots.
