Indonesia Dive Sites

Cape Mansuar

Papua Barat · —

Perfect snorkeling spot. A lot of fishes, some turtles and clown fishes.

Clown Valley (Apuri)

East Nusa Tenggara · 3–25 m

An astonishing dive off Pura island where nearly every surface of the slope is carpeted with bulb-tentacle sea anemones, reckoned to be among the highest anemone concentrations anywhere. Clark's and tomato anemonefish dart between hosts, and volcanic bubbles seep from the seabed in the shallows. A unique, easy site that doubles as a sign of Pura's volcanic origin.

The Cathedral (Motolang)

East Nusa Tenggara · 5–35 m

A spectacular site between Pura and Alor where a steep above-water cliff continues underwater as jumbled boulders and a coral-clad wall of hard and soft corals and sponges. A swim-through with a cave at around 25 m can shelter resting tawny nurse sharks, while the reef holds pygmy and Pontohi seahorses, frogfish and blue-ringed octopus. Dramatic topography makes it an Alor favourite.

Cape Bira (Tanjung Bira)

South Sulawesi · 5–35 m

A drift dive on a current-swept slope off Tanjung Bira at the southern tip of South Sulawesi, known for big-fish action with frequent sharks and the occasional hammerhead. Tuna, trevally, schooling pelagics and cod patrol the reef when current runs. A rewarding advanced site sometimes combined with trips to nearby Selayar and Takabonerate.
