Dive-site story
Bahara is an isolated granite pinnacle rising from the seabed southwest of Tioman Island. Exposed to open sea currents, the underwater boulder formations shelter large sea fans, soft coral gardens, and passing schools of pelagic fish.
Submerged granite boulders draped in colorful soft corals and large sea fans
Schools of chevron barracuda and bigeye trevally circling the pinnacle
Occasional encounters with blacktip reef sharks and pelagic rays along the drop-offs
Location
Use the map to plan with your operator and confirm the exact entry point on the day.
Seasonality
Diving occurs outside the northeast monsoon season, which brings heavy rain and rough seas during late autumn and winter.
