Dive-site story
Pengah Kecil is a small rocky islet situated in the central section of Komodo National Park. Divers descend along a sloping reef that drops toward rocky bommies and small drop-offs blanketed in dense hard corals, soft tree corals, and sea fans. Because it sits in an active tidal zone, the site draws abundant fish schools while offering protected pockets for macro critters.
Vigorous hard and soft coral cover covering rocky drop-offs and boulders
Frequent encounters with resident green and hawksbill sea turtles feeding along the slope
Macro discoveries tucked in reef crevices, including nudibranchs and frogfish
Schools of fusiliers, snappers, and trevallies feeding in the tidal flow
Location
Use the map to plan with your operator and confirm the exact entry point on the day.
Seasonality
