Ghost Bay at Cafe Garam, Ahmed

Let me tell you a little background story about Cafe Garam. This place is located just outside of tulamben, it was half an hour away from our resort. Cafe garam  is actually just a typical resort with a cafe near a beach. But the beach was not the typical kind of beach, it was much saltier than other beaches. So people used to gather the water in a pitch, the sun evaporates the water, leaving the salt behind. It was not pure salt left behind, so they had to further filtrate it.


Anyways, we came here not for the salt, but for diving. Apparently the people here have submerged some metal objects to invite the marine life there. Before we proceed with our dive, we were briefed about this iste. They had map, locating all the objects and at whta depth they are in. We carefully plan our dive so we will be able to see all of these objects. There were huge letters such as A, and D; there were also many glass bottles formed together to make little tower. It looked very beautiful. Bottles areactually the perfect thing for these marine animals, it allows them to hide and cover inside the bottles.
