Improve

Tatawa Besar is a sloping reef that can be explored either as a drift dive or a relaxing dive, depending on the tide.

The site is full of coral and sponges and visited by marine animals like blacktip reef sharks, Hawksbill turtles, and lots of schooling fish. During the rainy season, it is possible to see some manta rays.

Diving is possible all year round and you enter by shore. The maximum depth at Tatawa Besar is 19 meters/62 feet, which makes it accessible to all divers. Great visibility, exceeding 30 meters/100 feet.
