Why dive here
With 238+ marine species recorded in the area - including blacktip reef sharks, giant moray eels, pygmy seahorses, seahorses and sperm whales - Pinnacle 2 offers some of Sulawesi's richest cave diving. Water ranges 29-31°C, warmest June, October, November.
Pinnacle 2 in Sulawesi gives you a nice, easy dive. It’s a good spot to get back in the water if you haven’t dived in a while, or to just enjoy a relaxed afternoon. The pinnacle itself starts shallow, around 5 metres, making the upper sections perfect for newer divers to practice buoyancy without feeling too exposed. We often see schools of Dark-fin Chromis darting around the fire coral, and if you look closely, you might spot a Blotchfin scorpionfish blending into the sponges. Deeper down, around 20-24 metres, the slope continues, and we’ve caught glimpses of Napoleon Wrasse cruising by. Visibility averages about 17 metres, generally quite clear.
Safety Notes
Overhead environment - never enter without proper cave/cavern training, redundant equipment, and a guideline.
