Why dive here
With 238+ marine species recorded in the area - including blacktip reef sharks, giant moray eels, pygmy seahorses, seahorses and sperm whales - Tiwoho offers some of Sulawesi's richest reef diving. Water ranges 29-31°C, warmest June, October, November.
Tiwoho is a good spot for newer divers in Sulawesi, a gentle slope reaching 19m. You'll find plenty of smaller reef fish here, like angelfish and butterflyfish, darting among the coral bommies. The lack of strong currents makes it a relaxed place to practice buoyancy and enjoy a peaceful dive. It’s not a thrill-seeker's site, but it’s perfect for a calm afternoon.
