FULL DAY DIVE (up to 4 dives)

• Crystal Rock : named after the surrounding clear water just breaks the surface and is home to large schools of fusiliers and anthias beneath it. Nice soft coral coverage here with some impressive table corals. There is a small mound northwest of the rock where different species of fish school seasonally, including tuna and mackerel.
• Castle Rock is another nearby spot with great fish life including batfish and morays. Soft corals and sea fans are prolific at around 20 meters. Current can be strong, usually flow eastwards and are much stronger at the surface than in the deeper water. Yet it is possible to find shelter around the top of the rock where condition is mostly calmer for which this site is named after. Sharks and big rays can be spotted here.

FULL DAY DIVE (up to 4 dives)

• Batu Bolong offers truly world-class diving in the heart of the Komodo Island and National Park Reserve. Although it doesn’t look like much on the surface – in fact it somewhat resembles an odd doughnut-shaped rock hence the translation to “Hollow Rock” – a quick glance underwater reveals what all the spectacular dive stories are about. You should look out for reef sharks lurking by the ledge as well as dogtooth tuna, hawksbill turtles, giant trevallies and electric blue surgeonfish.
• Manta Point : one of the most dived sites in the park. Your best chance to dive with manta rays, sometimes schooling in the area.

• Manta Alley (2 dives) : this dive site is definitely an unforgettable dive experience, and it is a highlight of the Komodo National Park and for good reasons. The site is the home to throngs of manta rays that swim, play around, and feed relentlessly whilst being cleaned by cleaner wrasses. Amongst the reef, there are anemone fish, triggerfish, unicorn fish, and moray eels. The reef is also home to large groups of mantis shrimp that can be found in the nooks and crevices. These have very powerful claws that have earned them the nickname of “thumb splitters” for their ability to inflict pain on an unsuspecting misplaced hand.
