Dive-site story
Located off the southern end of Pulau Pinang in the Redang archipelago, Terumbu Kili consists of a rocky ridge and submerged boulder formation sloping into sandy channels. Water movements around the outcrop attract open-water species and sustain rich fields of soft corals and encrusting sea fans along the deeper rock faces.
Submerged boulder formations and sloping topography covered in colorful dendronephthya soft corals
Frequent aggregations of yellowtail barracudas, jacks, and passing blacktip reef sharks
Sheltered crevices harboring moray eels, nudibranchs, and banded cleaner shrimp
Location
Use the map to plan with your operator and confirm the exact entry point on the day.
