Kapal Polis

Kapal Polis is a dive we always recommend, especially for newer wreck divers or those looking for an easy second dive. It’s not deep, around 18 metres at its base, so you get plenty of bottom time to really explore the three police boats that make up the site. When we first dropped in, the bow of the largest boat, still quite intact, was already visible, standing proud from the seafloor. What we love about Kapal Polis is how quickly marine life has adopted it. Honeycomb and bubble corals cling to the metal, and you'll often see blackfish and pinkfish darting in and out of the hull’s shadowy recesses. Keep an eye out for green turtles munching on the nearby seagrass – we’ve had some fantastic close encounters here. Our favourite find, though, is the resident stonefish, usually camouflaged perfectly near the stern. The wreck creates a real sense of exploration without being overly challenging, offering enough nooks and crannies to satisfy your curiosity without ever feeling like you're pushing boundaries.
