Staying at Jules Underwater Lodge

Wow, I just found the website for Jules Underwater Lodge and is that a special Hotel or what?

Jules Underwater Lodge is a authentic underwater research habitat made into a small Underwater Lodge/hotel.
I find it pretty cool and would definately check it out when I’m close to Key Lago!

Snorkling Sihanoukville, Cambodia

Middle of October turned out not to be right for diving, but that didn’t stop my wife and I from getting out into the nice water around Sihanoukville, so we decided to take a full day snorkelling with the beautiful motoryacht Sun. The Sun is a really nice and beautiful motoryacht build, owned and operated by Robert Duczek, who really gives the trip that “German touch” – clean, reliable, practical and after hour (the trip back to Sihanoukville) with drinks, BEERS, German Schlager music and all other “good stuff” from the 70’-90’ies German music scene..
To be honest it was a real pleasure to spend a day at The Sun and we did in fact do it 2 days…

The trip took us to a good snorkeling site at the island Koh Kong Kang and to the bigger island Koh Rung Samloem which was better for some swimming and a walk on the island (do take care of the sandflies!).

At Koh Kong Kang we had a 1 hour stop which was perfect for some snorkeling – I’ve included a couple of pictures taken with my new camera Canon IXUS 110IS and the Waterproof Case WP-DC32.

Lots of fishes around Koh Kong Kang

Corals outside Koh Kong Kang

Koh Kong Kang also has nudibraches
