Why dive here
With 118+ marine species recorded in the area - including manta rays, mobula rays (devil rays), orcas, sea turtles and sperm whales - Sherwood Forest offers some of Derawan Islands's richest diving.
Sherwood Forest, in the Derawan Islands, offers a relaxed dive with a good chance to spot some interesting characters. We've seen a variety of nudibranchs here, often out in the open, alongside garden eels swaying from the sandy patches. It's a nice easy dive, great for macro enthusiasts or anyone looking for a chilled-out second dive of the day.
