Bakungan
★★★★☆
(190)
Located 5 minutes from Nunukan Islands off Virgin Cocoa Islands. Current wise calmest dive site in the atoll. Nice place for snorkeling. The many macro life forms make this shallow dive an experience as well.
Special sightings: Turtles (almost guaranteed), leopard shark, moray eels, nudibranchs and crabs.
