13. Fukui
Named after a Japanese diver who dived this spot 20 years ago. He was the first person to publish a description of the place and henceforth its name; Fukui. It is comparable with the rest of Bunaken's dive sites, however it is one of the few spots without a significant wall. Fukui is more sloping and has a few short, steep drops. Fukui is a "cleaning station" and all kinds of big fish have themselves cleaned while they take a good rest. It's a perfect place to observe Napoleon wrasse, barracuda, Jack and big Snapper. A sandy area at Fukui is home to a colony of garden eels. At a depth of 17 metres there are 5 good-sized "Tridacna" giant clams lying in a row. Fukui normally has a very mild current that can, occasionally, be a bit stronger. Average visibility is 20-25 meters.
