Why dive here
With 238+ marine species recorded in the area - including blacktip reef sharks, giant moray eels, pygmy seahorses, seahorses and sperm whales - Serena offers some of Sulawesi's richest diving. Water ranges 29-31°C, warmest June, October, November.
Serena, off Sulawesi, offers a good drift dive experience. We often see reef sharks patrolling the deeper sections and schooling barracuda moving with the current. This site is best for divers comfortable with moderate currents and looking for pelagic action.
