Why dive here
With 238+ marine species recorded in the area - including blacktip reef sharks, giant moray eels, pygmy seahorses, seahorses and sperm whales - Mike’s Point offers some of Sulawesi's richest reef diving. Water ranges 29-31°C, warmest June, October, November.
Mike’s Point off Sulawesi is an intermediate dive, dropping to 23m. We often find good numbers of fusiliers here, along with the occasional reef shark patrolling the deeper sections. It’s a solid spot for divers comfortable with some current, offering dependable fish action rather than grand coralscapes. A good choice for a second dive of the day.
