Dive-site story
Located off the coast of Pulau Weh, Batee Gua features a complex underwater landscape characterized by submerged volcanic boulders, swim-throughs, and caverns carved into the rock. Ocean currents sweep along the outer edge of the formation, drawing pelagic species and schooling predatory fish. Divers navigate among granite boulders covered in sea fans and hard corals before drifting along deeper contours where rays and pelagics cruise past.
Submerged boulder formations with archways and cavernous swim-throughs
Regular encounters with passing pelagics in the blue
Robust gorgonian sea fans lining deep rocky crevices
