NAD’s dedicated camera room is also the perfect place to work on and edit your pictures. The spacious, individual benches with lots of power points were purposely built for underwater photographers. Our newly renovated, huge camera room offers one work space for each and every guest. We are also the go-to location for natural history filming in the Straits. This gives us a rounded knowledge of all cameras. We shoot video up to 8K, along with Nikon/ Canon SLR and mirrorless setups. We offer 1:1 photo classes and our guides are all proficient with photography, using our rental equipment for fun dives when not diving with guests. Our focus at NAD is to take your underwater photography to the next level. Our jetty allows our guests dignified and quick boat entries – all our dive boats can be moored simultaneously, so there is no wading through the shallows to get on the boat for the dive! PHOTO CENTER Boats feature onboard toilets, towels, drinks and snacks and first aid/ oxygen Each at around 15m long, they offer lots of space and comfort for the divers. NAD-Lembeh has 4 large, purpose-built dive boats. Our dive team consists of 15 full-time guides, with over 100 years of combined experience! Air as well as Nitrox and various cylinder sizes (both DIN and Yoke are available onsite). Our resort has only few steps, which makes our layout extremely convenient to get from your room to the restaurant, camera room, bar and floating jetty.

ROOMS & BUNGALOWSĪll our rooms (10 Beachfront Rooms, 5 Seaview Bungalows) offer ocean view, air conditioning, hot water, wifi, including full board. We guarantee a 2:1 guest to guide ratio as standard, which makes for a private dive experience and lots of time to take pictures.
We are situated in a private bay on Lembeh Island, away from the hustle and bustle of the mainland. NAD-Lembeh Resort is a small, owner-operated, photography-oriented dive resort in the Lembeh Strait. Coconut Octopus might be shy at first but if you approach carefully, you can sometimes even get a close up shot of the eye (this picture was taken with Nauticam CMC-1 diopter). Since the Coconut Octopus can grow up to a size of 30 cm, the best choice of lens for me and my Panasonic GH4 is the Olympus 12-50mm which I can switch to 43mm focal length and macro mode. However, they would still pick a fight over the other octopuses’ home. Greed and envy do not only exist in the human world: the two octopuses in the following picture each had a bottle or shells to hide underneath. The Coconut Octopus is one of the most common octopus species we see here in Lembeh – sometimes several of them within only a few square meters! A lot of times you will only see the eyes pocking out of whichever habitat the octopus chose to live in. Watch the video below and you will see what I mean! A COMMON CREATURE Protecting its body with shells or hiding in coconut halves (hence the name of the octopus), you can often watch them building or improving their home. This species of octopus, also called the Veined Octopus, is very active during the day. One of the most entertaining creatures to watch when diving in Lembeh is the Coconut Octopus (Amphioctopus marginatus).
