To the east is the island of Farondi. Visit the unique underwater caves at Goa Farondi and hunt for cool pygmy seahorses on the different varieties of sea fans. Nearby in the channel are the current rich pinnacles of the Three Sisters. This area is teeming with life and there is a good chance of seeing a lot of fish action.

Day 5:
The Four Kings is a series of colorful underwater pinnacles which make an amazing dive with plenty of cool fish action.

In the afternoon enjoy the pretty shallows and the gorgeous soft coral garden in the area.
Days 10-11:
Goraici and Seamount of Halmahera Sea.
