Tapuan I and II
Why dive here
With 238+ marine species recorded in the area - including blacktip reef sharks, giant moray eels, pygmy seahorses, seahorses and sperm whales - Tapuan I and II offers some of Sulawesi's richest diving. Water ranges 29-31°C, warmest June, October, November.
Tapuan I and II offer a straightforward dive experience in Sulawesi. We’ve found these sites to be gentle slopes, good for spotting the smaller stuff, like nudibranchs and pygmy seahorses if you’ve got a sharp eye. It’s a solid choice for a relaxed afternoon dive, particularly if you appreciate macro life over big pelagics. We’d recommend it for divers who enjoy a slower pace and detailed exploration.
