Today, we flew to Wakatobi resort for 10 days of diving. It is located on Onemoba’a island, which stands for long white beach and sits in the Banda Sea. This is probably one of the prettiest islands with palm trees everywhere, wood bungalows with palapa roofs, an open air dining area and a jetty facing the sunset every night. The name Wakatobi is an acronym of the first two letters of the 4 nearby larger islands of the group (Wangi Wangi, Kaledopa, Tomia, and Binongko). While 16,000 people live on Tomia where our plane landed, the village on our island has a population of 700.
