A little dive site puts on a grand show for some of the famous people in fish ID.
We last dived in Triton Bay nine years ago, when only a couple of commercial liveaboards had ventured to this southern area of the Bird’s Head Peninsula in West Papua, Indonesia. Our cruise director in 2007, the late Larry Smith, had visited Triton Bay earlier that year with his friends Burt Jones and Maurine Shimlock. Dives were made up of a potpourri of sites that they had found, coupled with a few explored by a preliminary Conservation International expedition in 2006. Primarily it was a hit-or-miss affair. Fortunately, we hit the mark more often than not, and, oh, what fish and critters! When we left, we knew we would return. We didn’t realise was just how long that would be.

TECHNICAL DIVING TIMELINE (1660–1999)
It’s fair to say that the emergence of “technical diving” in the late 1980s, that is, the introduction of mixed gas technology, and later mixed gas rebreathers to the sport diving community, represented the culmination of hundreds of years of scientific discovery and technological development.
