The problem: the reefs in Lissenung have been massively damaged by the warming of the water since our last visit in 2023. We still had 32° at a depth of 30 m. But strangely, not all the reefs were affected. Surprisingly, the Albatros Reef was still largely intact. Presumably there are some cooler currents there temporarily. Equally surprising was the fact that there were blacktip sharks on Lissenung's house reef that didn't seem to mind the high water temperature. Nevertheless, it was frightening to see how the house reef had also suffered. In general, there was virtually no reef top with photogenic corals. Conclusion: A familiar and friendly island about which nothing negative can be said, apart from the usual mosquitoes. The coral bleaching is a disaster, for which no base manager can do anything. That's the sad part of this story.

The bungalows and rooms are spacious, clean and well spaced. The huge terrace in front of the bungalows is also worth mentioning. The food was always very tasty and varied. Anyone who was really hungry was immediately served more. The staff were very friendly and always courteous. There is nothing to complain about here.

Family atmosphere, the base operators are eager to do everything right. Very good organization also in the research of flights. Very neat island flair. Somewhat awkward arrival because of the domestic flights that do not always take place. You have to cut back a bit on the food because not everything is always available. House reef!!!

Very beautiful, small resort island with generously distributed simple bungalows. Family atmosphere, neat and quiet. Perfect for relaxing between dives.
