    StandoutExceptional marine biodiversity

    Sulawesi's Canyon dive delivers exactly what the name suggests: a dramatic gash in the reef, dropping to depths unknown. We found ourselves navigating impressive swim-throughs and overhangs, often spotting reef sharks patrolling the deeper sections. This site is definitely one for the experienced diver comfortable with overhead environments and potential currents. Keep an eye out for schooling jacks around the canyon mouth.
