    StandoutExceptional marine biodiversity

    Tanjung Sabine starts as a gentle slope, perfect for easing into your dive. You’ll weave past parrotfish and damselfish before the reef drops away into a mini wall, making for a mellow drift. It’s a shallow spot, topping out around 12 meters, so you get plenty of bottom time to spot pyramid butterflyfish flitting among the corals. We’ve even caught the occasional blacktip reef shark cruising by. This site is a great pick for a relaxed afternoon dive, suited for divers who want to take their time exploring.
