Dive-site story
Tokong Burung 1 sits around an isolated granite outcropping northwest of Pulau Tioman. Underwater, massive tumble-down boulders create intricate swim-throughs, overhangs, and vertical cracks lined with sea fans. Pelagic fish sweep through the open water between the rock formations, while the sheltered crevices host cryptic macro life.
Submerged boulder formations and canyons forming natural swim-throughs
Schools of yellowtail barracuda and trevally patrolling the outer perimeter
Dense clusters of sea whips and colorful soft corals on shadowed rock faces
Location
