Dive-site story
Situated in the Daram chain of Southeast Misool, Living Colour features a sloping reef plateau and ridge adorned with expansive sea fan forests and kaleidoscopic soft corals. The site is exposed to open-water currents that sweep nutrient-rich water across the coral headlands, drawing dense schools of pelagic fish and feeding reef dwellers.
Vast fields of pastel-hued Dendronephthya soft corals and gorgonian sea fans along the ridge
Dense aggregations of fusiliers, batfish, and snappers hovering off the current-facing point
Macro hunting along sea fan branches for pygmy seahorses and commensal crustaceans
