With 153+ marine species recorded in the area - including sea turtles, sperm whales, whale sharks and pufferfish - RIZQIN 9 offers some of Perhentian Islands's richest wreck diving. Water ranges 28-31°C, warmest May, June, August.
The Rizqin 9 is a small fishing boat wreck in the shallows, perfect for newer divers or those looking for a relaxed second dive. Lying upright at just 8 meters, it’s already well-colonised by soft corals and anemones. Look closely and you’ll often find pipefish camouflaged against the hull and juvenile barracuda schooling overhead. It’s a gentle introduction to wreck diving.
