Why dive here
With 118+ marine species recorded in the area - including manta rays, mobula rays (devil rays), orcas, sea turtles and sperm whales - Batu Kangan offers some of Derawan Islands's richest diving.
Batu Kangan is a straightforward dive in the Derawan Islands, maxing out at 24m. It's a good spot for newer divers to get comfortable, with generally mild conditions. We've seen a range of smaller reef fish here, going about their day. It’s a solid option for a relaxed second or third dive, easy enough to enjoy the quiet.
