KM Tenaga Sakti

The KM Tenaga Sakti is a personal favourite when the conditions align in Singapore’s Southern Islands. You're diving a freighter that sank in the 1980s, an accidental monument now sitting upright on a sandy bottom at 30 metres. What we love about this wreck is the sheer scale and the way it’s become a living reef. Dropping down the line, the visibility can be a bit hit or miss – Singapore diving, right? But when it clears, even to five metres, the ghostly outline of the hull emerges, often cloaked in schooling fusiliers and yellowtail barracuda. We always make a point of circling the entire wreck, taking in the huge cargo holds and the superstructure, now decorated with soft corals and sponges. Keep an eye out for resident groupers peering from dark crevices and the occasional turtle gliding past. It's a proper wreck dive, best suited for experienced divers comfortable with deeper profiles and potentially strong currents, which can whip through here without much warning. If you’re lucky enough to dive it on a slack tide, exploring the more protected sections of the deck is a real treat.
