    StandoutRich in charismatic marine life

    Kalanggaman is a pleasant drift dive, suitable for newer divers looking for a relaxed pace. We typically find a good mix of small reef fish along the gentle slope, with occasional pelagic sightings out in the blue. Keep an eye out for nudibranchs tucked into the soft corals. It’s a nice option for an easy second dive.
