Why dive here
With 263+ marine species recorded in the area - including blue-spotted stingrays, dugongs, giant moray eels, seahorses and sea turtles - KRITI SUN offers some of Southern Islands's richest wreck diving. Water ranges 28-31°C, warmest May, June, November.
The KRITI SUN, a tanker that met its end in 1975, is our pick for a Singapore wreck dive. It’s a shallow site, only hitting 12m, which means decent bottom time and often brighter conditions than you’d expect from a wreck. What we love about the KRITI SUN isn't just the history of a 260-meter vessel, it's how she’s completely given herself over to the sea. You'll fin through schools of fusiliers, sometimes so thick they obscure the wreck’s details, then push past them to explore the skeletal remains of the superstructure. Visibility can be hit or miss, typical for Singapore, but on a good day, the sheer scale of the tanker makes for some impressive swim-throughs. Look for batfish hovering around the deeper sections and lionfish tucked into crevices. This site suits divers who appreciate the atmospheric beauty of a wreck reclaiming itself, not those expecting vibrant coral gardens. Go at slack tide for the easiest dive; currents here can pick up and make navigating the wreck a bit of a workout.
