Terumbu Tiga

Tiger Rock is the English translation of Terumbu Tiga, it’s among the finest dive destinations within the east coast of the Perhentian Islands. This dive destination seems to have almost everything. Boulder structures manifest valleys as well as swim-throughs which are covered with gorgonian seafans.

You will discover as well hard coral sections for instance staghorn, brain and table coral. Soft coral as well as barrel sponges and sea whips plus feather stars provide you with the color combination. Small reef fish for example, damsels and anthias flit inside and out of coral heads. Schools of fusiliers and snappers move in sync as groups. Leopard sharks can also be found resting on reef’s edge within the sand. What’s more, whitetip reef sharks sometimes appear even more in nowhere.
