A Heartwarming "Saddleback Family" — Clownfish by DiverOlive
Olive Chou
Saddleback Clownfish
Scientific name: Amphiprion polymnus
The Saddleback Clownfish isn't easy to spot in Taiwan, but we got lucky and found two anemone clusters over in Bohol —
Sharing them with everyone! Aren't they adorable? And there's a whole bunch of little ones too~~~so cute~~~
Next to one of the sea anemones, we also spotted a pipefish.
Hmm... does someone have a guardian watching over them?
Side note: there's also a cluster at 32 m depth in the sandy area at Hejie, Kenting, Taiwan! If you get the chance, go check out this adorable Saddleback family — just be careful not to go into a decompression stop! Ha.
This is the dive shop I booked for my trip to Bohol. They have dive guides from all over the world — including Taiwanese guides, of course! Take the opportunity to get away to an island paradise!
Frequently Asked Questions
How is a BlueTrend dive trip different from a regular travel-agency dive tour?
We're a digital media company rooted in marine ecology. Every trip comes with top-tier dive-safety oversight, plus underwater-photography and marine-science insights shared by professional photo instructors or eco-guides. The precious wildlife shots you take can even be identified and logged as citizen-science records through our AI ocean-data platform — so your holiday isn't just sightseeing, it carries real meaning for ocean conservation!
Are there certification (C-card) level or logged-dive requirements to join a BlueTrend overseas dive trip?
Difficulty varies by site. 'Bali Tulamben', for example, suits AOW (OW divers, just ask us); while 'Maldives tiger shark diving' and 'Palau's high-current sites' strongly require AOW level and 50+ logged dives. If you're unsure whether your experience fits, contact us anytime and our instructors will give you a professional assessment.
Can I join as a solo diver? How is room arrangement handled?
Absolutely! Many of our travellers sign up solo and make like-minded dive buddies on the trip. For rooms, we prioritise pairing same-gender travellers; if you'd prefer a single room, you can upgrade by paying the difference.
Does the trip fee include dive insurance, gear rental, flights or instructor tips?
BlueTrend believes in transparent pricing. Our dive packages include professional underwater guiding, insurance on certain itineraries, and accommodation. Since every traveller’s departure point and gear needs differ, flights and gear rental are usually optional or self-arranged. For a detailed included/not-included list, check each trip’s itinerary or ask our LINE support.
