Why dive here
With 143+ marine species recorded in the area - including sea turtles and whale sharks - Tanjung Gemuk offers some of Redang Island's richest diving. Water ranges 28-31°C, warmest April, May, October.
Tanjung Gemuk, on Redang Island, often delivers decent visibility, though it can drop after heavy rain. We’ve spotted whale sharks here on a few occasions, usually in the late morning, making it a good spot for patient divers hoping for pelagic encounters. Aside from that, it’s a relatively standard reef dive, suitable for divers wanting a relaxed drift or those keen on keeping an eye out for bigger visitors.
