Dive Sites of Tioman
Tioman is indeed blessed with some world class dive sites. Take the leap and dive deep into a spectacular world underwater!

Some notable dive sites are:
Tiger Reef
This submerged pinnacle located between Labas and Sepoi is one of Tioman’s most famous dive sites. This site has an average depth of just 15 metres/50 feet and it offers an explosion of colour. The kaleidoscopic soft coral coverage on the pinnacle is what really steals the limelight as bright oranges, hot pinks and vibrant purples compete for attention.

Due to the stronger currents that can be present here, you can expect to encounter large schools of jacks, mackerels, yellow fin barracuda, fusiliers and rainbow runners on almost every dive. The large boulders and canyons provide useful shelter if you want to take a break from the action. Look out for angelfish, moray eels, stingrays, pufferfish, nudibranchs and white tip reef sharks resting under ledges.

Soyak
Soyak dive site is located just off a small island from which it takes its name. This shallow dive site deserves a mention as it is a beautiful site that’s packed with diversity for all levels. Soyak’s stunning reef is a mix of bommies and boulders which are adorned with brightly coloured soft corals, anemones, fire corals, sponges and hard branching corals and plates.

Some of the frequently spotted highlights here include hawksbill turtles, blue-ring angelfish, batfish, emperors, titan triggerfish, numerous types of butterflyfish, blue spotted stingrays on the sand, yellow striped snappers, moray eels in the crevices, schooling fusiliers, yellowtail barracudas, zebra lionfish and quite literally, a multitude of nudibranchs.

KM Sipadan & Sawadee Wrecks
KM Sipadan is a former Royal Navy warship that was put into service in 1964 and later decommissioned in 2005. The Malaysian Maritime Office sunk the KM Sipadan at the Sawadee dive site in 2012 for the purposes of creating an artificial reef. This 31 meters/102 feet long wreck is connected by underwater lines to the two Thai fishing boat wrecks which lay nearby, at a maximum depth of 30 meters/100 feet, and are known as Sawadee (see Soyak dive site description above).

Coral growth on these wrecks is patchy but they attract a generous amount of fish life. Depending on the time of year when you visit you may see schools of juvenile fish that have made the wrecks their nurseries, including; yellow-tail barracuda, snappers and fusiliers. Other highlights to look out for are nudibranch and peculiar bottom dwellers such as stonefish, flatheads (crocodile fish), several different species of lionfish, moray eels and grumpy-looking frogfish!

Tumok
Tumok, also known as Tanjung Gemuk, is a small half island in front of Paya Bay. Though a small reef, it still comes with surprises such as its resident turtles and barracudas. Currents at Tomuk vary according to the phase of the moon and this site ranges from a leisurely swim to an exciting drift.

North Point
This is a beautiful drift dive along the side of Tioman Island. This is definitely a site to go with the flow, let the current do the hard work and simply enjoy the show along the way.

North Point is a sloping fringing reef site which bottoms out at around 18 meters/60 feet. On the slope you’ll find plenty of coral bommies which attract reef fish like metal to a magnet. On the bottom of the site there’s an interesting garden of sea whips and large, coral-adorned boulders. Highlights here include different species of lionfish, moray eels, titan triggerfish, small schools of bumphead parrotfish, sweetlips, Moorish idols and look out for the long antennae of spiny lobsters protruding out from nooks and crannies in the reef!

So, what says you?
Are you getting bored of life on land? Then maybe it’s time to start diving in for better things in life, in this case, it’s Tioman Boat Dive.
