TG 90476TS - Redang Island
TG 90476TS, one of Redang’s deeper dives, is a fishing vessel that went down in 2015. Sitting upright at 54 metres, it's a sobering but intriguing visit for advanced divers. We’ve found the stern section offers the most to explore, with the wheelhouse largely intact and some open areas you can peek into. Over the years, schools of yellowtail snapper have made it their home, often swarming around the mast, and we’ve spotted giant moray eels peeking from shadowed nooks. It’s a quiet wreck, far from the crowds, offering a chance for a reflective deep dive.
