Fan Canyon

This dive site is located off Genting Bay, on the Coral Island. It descends to a maximum depth of approximately 30 meters. The main area features a lower reef edge, leading to about 22 meters, where you'll discover an abundance of beautiful granite rock boulders completely covered in soft corals – so dense that the rock itself is obscured. A notable feature is Fan Canyon, named for the numerous gorgonian sea fan corals that adorn its walls. At 16 meters, a narrow, intriguing tunnel awaits, offering a chance to swim through it due to its teeming population of tiny anchovies. This canyon is renowned for hosting an exceptional diversity of nudibranchs and flatworms; it's considered one of the best dive sites in this region for these fascinating invertebrates. The surrounding waters are home to a wide array of marine life, including angelfish, pufferfish, batfish, emperors, parrots, butterflyfish, nurse sharks, scorpionfish, stingrays, yellow striped snappers, moray eels, and zebra lionfish.
