Description

Diving holiday Flores Siaba Besar Siaba Besar is another amazing dive of north Komodo. The beautiful coral garden lies along the western coast of the island and the site can be dived both during rising and falling tide, though falling tide, with currents pushing southwards, is the best. In falling tide enter the water at the north western tip of Siaba Besar and just follow the current to a depth of 18 to 25 meters. As in any other spot where currents run large schools of pelagic are hunting here around. Black tip sharks, barracudas, snappers, trevally, wrasses and turtles are usually spotted on this dive. The more southwards you go, the stronger the current gets, but it never gets too strong. The dive naturally ends at the southern edge of the island where a colourful coral garden will receive you for your safety stop that normally lasts much more than 3 minutes.
