Diving holiday Flores Crystal Rock, just 300m from Castle Rock, has a tip which is exposed at low tide. Like Castle Rock, Crystal Rock can be subject to strong currents which attract big marine life, like grey reef sharks, white tip reef sharks and giant trevallies. But this is why we like diving Komodo! (Note: named for its usually crystal clear water).

Now it’s often just a matter of “wait and see”. Even in current, there is shelter to be found in the lee of the rock.

From there you can dive down to 27-30m to look for pygmy sea horses on the fan corals. The dive continues back up the main pinnacle and there’s still plenty to see on the way back up.
