Why dive here
With 238+ marine species recorded in the area - including blacktip reef sharks, giant moray eels, pygmy seahorses, seahorses and sperm whales - Kungkungan house reef offers some of Sulawesi's richest reef diving. Water ranges 29-31°C, warmest June, October, November.
We love a good house reef, and Kungkungan delivers for muck diving fans. Don't expect dramatic coral walls; this is all about the macro. We've often found frogfish here, along with various pipefish and the usual cast of nudibranchs, sometimes even a wonderpus if you're lucky. It's a great spot for photographers and divers who enjoy a slow, detailed poke around the seabed.
