Bunker
Why dive here
With 107+ marine species recorded in the area - including blacktip reef sharks, sea turtles, whale sharks and pufferfish - Bunker offers some of Tioman Island's richest reef diving. Water ranges 28-31°C, warmest April, May, October.
Banc de La Clocheterie offers a solid dive in the Gulf of Tadjoura. We’ve seen a decent scattering of corals here, nothing to write home about, but certainly enough to hold the attention. Look out for checkerboard wrasse zipping between the coral heads, and we often spot longfin bannerfish hanging around the reef's edge. Keep an eye on the blue too; blacktip reef sharks make occasional passes. This site is a good pick for a relaxed dive, suitable for most experience levels, especially if you’re keen to tick off some common Red Sea residents without fighting a strong current.
