24. Barracuda
Point
Yes - barracudas.
And if they're there, a lot of them. Not only barracuda, but big
tuna and jacks too. However, the problem is that they are not
always around and this reef is not one of the best we have. The
wall and slope is sandy and does not offer much live coral.
Barracuda like it here because of currents, so that is also something
to be taken into account. It is also a bit further away and we
will probably leave earlier that day from the LumbaLumba jetty.
To be honest, we think the chance of seeing a lot of barrcuda
is just as great at Tanjung Kopi, north of Manado Tua. If the
weather is good and everybody on the boat agrees to take the risk,
we have no problems in taking you there. One thing is for sure:
the trip is real cool!
