I'm back in Anilao after a week diving Tubbataha on the Phillipines Aggressor. We were met at the airport by the Crystal Blue Resort van and we got to the resort 2.5 hours later.

The highlight of the dives were the nudibranchs which I wrote about last time I visited Anilao. This time, I saw more variety as our guide, Jerome, showed us some rare ones.

Goniobranchus Nudibranch

The above is a Goniobranchus Nudibranch (I believe???)

Hypselodoris nudibranchHypselodoris nudibranch

Varieties of Hypselodoris bollandi nudi.

NudibranchA nembrotha nudi look alike. This one is much smaller than the typical nembrotha nudi.

Curly Nudibranch

Curly looking nudibranch which is similar to a Unidentia Sandramillenae.

More pictures of the various Anilao nudibranchs are here.
