About this dive site

This dive site, known as Teluk KK, is situated in a bay offering easy access from both shore and boat. The underwater topography primarily consists of a sandy bottom gently sloping from the beach down to 12 meters, interspersed with natural staghorn reefs and unique artificial reefs crafted from PVC pipes. There's no historical context provided beyond its name, suggesting a natural formation primarily used for recreational diving. Navigation is straightforward given the shallow depth and distinct reef structures.

The marine life here is diverse for a shallow, beginner-friendly site. Divers and snorkelers can expect to encounter vibrant reef fishes such as Angelfish and Bannerfish. The site is notable for its resident Clownfish living in Anemones. Stingrays are also present, often found camouflaged under the sandy seabed. The coral formations include staghorn reefs, complemented by the PVC pipe artificial reefs that attract various small marine organisms.

Teluk KK is an ideal destination for beginners, snorkelers, and freedivers due to its shallow, manageable depths and calm conditions. Highlights include spotting the well-camouflaged stingrays and the iconic Clownfish. For freedivers, the gradual slope and interesting bottom features offer plenty to explore. It's a great spot for underwater photography, particularly for macro life and capturing the interaction between clownfish and anemones. The site's easy access makes it convenient for quick dips or longer explorations.
