Don't Miss Dives:
TK (Teluk Kembahu)
Muck sites don’t have much scenery, as the critters come and go; the best spots vary week to week. But the sheltered bay at TK always delivers, with several species of frogfsh, several types of octopuses, seahorses, stargazers and much more.
Nudi Falls
One of the classics, Nudi Falls ofers a mix of habitats, which means lots of diferent critters — pygmy seahorses are almost always in residence. The site earned its name because there are so many sea slugs on the wall that divers’ bubbles can knock them of, causing it to rain nudis.
Sarena Besar
This rubble and white-sand slope, with patches of reef in the shallows and deeper, is a great spot for smaller invertebrate critters, including harlequin shrimp, boxer crabs, blue-ring octopuses and long-nose shrimp. They’re the perfect foil for their black-sand habitats.
