Tokomasari Reef - Kerama Islands
Tokomasari Reef is a solid intermediate dive in the Keramas. We typically find ourselves drifting along a gentle slope, keeping an eye out for larger pelagics moving through the blue. It’s not uncommon to spot reef sharks making lazy passes, and the occasional eagle ray might glide by if you’re lucky. This site is a good choice for divers looking for a relaxed drift and the chance of some bigger animal encounters, without any overly challenging conditions.
