    StandoutExceptional marine biodiversity

    Pulau Ekor Tebu is a solid Perhentian dive, often overlooked for the flashier spots. We usually find green turtles munching on the corals here, and the reef is home to plenty of angelfish and parrotfish. It’s a good choice for newer divers or those looking for a relaxed afternoon drift. Expect calm conditions and a gentle current most days.
