Dive-site story
Rising from the deep floor of the Tomini Gulf near Batudaka Island, Dream Rock is an offshore coral pinnacle within the Bomba atoll system. Dense gorgonian sea fans and black coral bushes coat the steep flanks, while pelagic species cruise past in the blue. Currents sweep over the summit, concentrating schooling fish and creating dynamic drift conditions.

Thriving hard and soft coral cover populated by nudibranchs and pygmy seahorses
