Batu Layar
★★★★☆
(1,464)
Batu Layar, or translated into Sail Rock, is a hard coral reef of Staghorn Corals and massive Table Corals. The coral reef extends into 18m, and turns into a sandy bottom. Batu Layar is considered one of the best dive sites in Perhentian with consistently good visibility.
Barracudas are common sights here, alongside Black Tip Sharks and Hawksbills. Look closely under the table corals, and sometimes you will spot Bamboo Sharks too.
