PULAU TINGGI

Pulau Tinggi is one of the first small islands we visit on this journey. With its white sand beach and healthy reef of hard corals make this a famous spot for local snorkel boats to visit. The reef slopes down to a sandy sea bed where you can find and observe many critters living off the seafloor. With protection from the wind, this is great spot for a check dive, where divers can ease their way into the water.

PULAU SIBU

TOKONG BAHARA

Tokong Bahara is one of the best dive sites in Tioman. Also known by divers as “Bahara Rocks”, the site is clearly marked with a navigation light on the surface. A small rock on the surface leads divers to underwater seamounts below. Submerge to a strip of long reef heavily populated by hard corals and anemone in the shallow, and colorful sea fans and barrel sponges at depth. The reef system connects Bahara Rocks to a small island on the Northeast side. Schools of fishes, blacktip reef sharks, turtles and stingrays can be spotted here. Due to sea conditions, the site can be quite challenging in rough sea and strong current.

PULAU LABAS

Labas is another favorite spot for divers in Tioman. There are 2 breathtaking dive sites lie within this island. Beautiful white rocks on the surface lead you to the underwater paradise. Enjoy a relaxing dive with beautiful coral gardens and discover marine species living amongst the sand slope or check out the “Swiss Cheese”, challenge your buoyancy skill through various swim throughs and caverns.

PULAU CHEBEH

MAGICIENNE ROCK

Named after its discovery by HMS Magicienne in 1837, this underwater pinnacle lies in the middle of the open ocean. With its shallowest point at 8 meter. Due to its location and sometimes challenging condition, this dive site is rarely dove. The current can get strong here, but it also brings pelagic species such as manta ray and whale shark to the site. Apart from a chance to see the big fishes, the site itself has a wonderful diversity of corals and abundance of fish. With challenging condition and average depth of 20 meter, we only recommend this dive site to certified Advanced Open Water diver and above.

TEKEK, PULAU RENGGIS

The capital village of Pulau Tioman, which lies on the West side of the island. Tekek still has its charm as an island village, where you can enjoy a small selection of duty free goods. There are coral reefs scattering along the 3 kilometer stretch of beach, but the highlight would be a visit to Pulau Renggis. A small island off the coast near Tekek Village. Do not let the size fool you, this site is packed with underwater beauty! From healthy coral reef to abundance of fish. This small dive spot is perfect for a nice relax dive.

PULAU GUT

A small island situated South of Tioman. Descent into the underwater wonder of coral gardens scattering at different depths. This is a fairly easy dive site with average depth of 13 – 18 meter. Enjoy your dive exploring coral patches and observe different species of fish residing around the reef. Apart from the beauty that lies below, there are also surprises out in the blue! Keep an eye out for a school of barracuda and some pelagic species that will make this a dive to remember.

PULAU PEMANGGIL

Pulau Pemanggil is a beautiful hideaway part of Johor national park. Be mesmerized by lush green hills and emerald green water surrounding the island. Scuba diving and snorkeling here are just as beautiful as those in Tioman. White sand beaches, beautiful hard corals and abundance of fish. There are various dive sites around the island which you can choose to suit your experience.

PULAU AUR, PULAU DAYANG, PULAU PINANG

The southernmost group of islands of the trip and also our favorite spot. All three islands are part of Johor national park with Pulau Aur being the biggest of all. Being exposed to the open sea makes this place full with marine life. Pulau Aur and its neighbouring island, Pulau Dayang situate only 400 meter away from one another. This creates a channel of verdant hills and clear turquoise water, a breathtaking anchorage to have. Watch the sunrise and enjoy a morning dive at Reyner’s Rock, a spectacular underwater rock formation. Swim amongst a bait ball of glassfish and watch as predatory fishes like barracudas and giant trevallies hunt for their meal. There are many beautiful dive sites around these islands that will sure make you keep falling in love with this place.
