Maju Laut
Why dive here
With 143+ marine species recorded in the area - including sea turtles and whale sharks - Maju Laut offers some of Redang Island's richest wreck diving. Water ranges 28-31°C, warmest April, May, June.
Maju Laut offers a different flavour of diving in Redang, focusing on a carrier vessel resting upright in about 9 metres of water. It's a relaxed dive, perfectly suited for those looking to explore a compact wreck without deep-diving stress. We find the structure itself quite interesting; the hull is largely intact, providing a sense of its original purpose, and you can swim through various sections where the metal has peeled away. Schools of snappers often congregate around the superstructure, and the encrusting corals provide homes for nudibranchs and small crabs if you take your time to look closely. It’s a good spot for a second dive or for divers getting comfortable with wreck exploration.
