Why dive here
Gosong Barak is a reef dive where divers can encounter mantis shrimp. Water ranges 29-32°C, warmest April, May, June.
Gosong Barak offers a look at a healthy coral reef ecosystem off Sumatra. We've seen a good variety of reef fish here, from parrotfish to schooling fusiliers, all busy around the hard corals. It's a straightforward dive, generally calm, making it a good option for divers looking for a relaxed exploration rather than a high-adrenalin drift.
