Koyoko Island
★★★★☆
(29)
This dive site is among top 5 for its enchanting allure and beauty within the region. Here, you’ll marvel at the splendid coral colonies and vibrant schools of fish. After a safety stop, you can even venture into captivating underwater caves. While the current can occasionally become swifter, I often recommend diving during low tide. When entering the water from the boat, you’ll find a calm 5-meter depth, making it a fantastic spot suitable for beginners and providing a sense of security.
This dive site offers the opportunity to observe colonies of snappers, schools of yellowtail snapper, groupers, various snapper species, soft and hard corals. The cave itself hosts communities of fish that prefer dimly lit environments, including gibbons, gobies, and southern longspine snappers. Occasionally, you may also spot rare species such as ragged scorpionfish, sharks, and adult butterflyfish. It’s a fantastic location for divers to immerse themselves in a diverse and vibrant ecosystem.
