Why dive here
With 203+ marine species recorded in the area - including manta rays, mobula rays (devil rays), pygmy seahorses, sea turtles and sperm whales - GPS Point offers some of Komodo's richest diving. Water ranges 28-30°C, warmest April, May, November.
GPS Point, off Gili Banta, delivers on its reputation for pelagics. We’ve seen dogtooth tuna cruise by, schools of barracudas hang in the blue, and surgeonfish swirl around the seamount. The top of the reef, just five metres deep, is a different world, with snowflake morays peeking from crevices and nudibranchs grazing on the corals. It’s a site that rewards patience, especially when the currents are running. We’d suggest this for experienced divers comfortable with a bit of a ride.
