The cuttlefish eggs photos were taken in Koh Lanta, Thailand just off the beach. Next year when I'm in thailand I'll have to convince everyone we want to go to phi phi don, we dive Koh Bida often, it's not much farther.
I was in Anilao, Phillipines this year, I saw a few different octos at a site called twin rocks (probably because that's where I was doing sunset dives). Just after I left a friend managed to find a, erm, sorry forget it's real name -the blue ring octopus that only has one spot below it's eye. They used to see flamboyants fairly often at manit muck, but that whole site has been a bit slow since a resort put up a retaining wall. I think Anilao was fairly good for variety.
I looked at tawali, it looks amazing it's definitely now on my list of places to go lthough I don't think I can afford it this year. I'll be diving in the Vancouver Canada area this weekend so my fingers are crossed for GPO!
Were you thinking of anywhere specifically in Indonesia? AirAsia used to have really cheap flights to Manado, but they've cancelled them, so it's harder to get to Lembeh now.
