Areng Kambing, located off the coast of Bangka Island, is a captivating dive site characterized by its massive coral formations known as bommies. These structures are teeming with a diverse array of marine creatures, ranging from the common inhabitants of the reef to the unique and extraordinary species typically encountered in high-quality muck diving spots. Beyond the coral bommies lies an expansive sandy area adorned with seagrass, where, with a bit of fortune, one might spot the elusive Dugongs grazing.
Tiga Batu, nestled near Areng Kambing, stands out as one of Bangka Island’s premier diving destinations. It is renowned for its towering pinnacle that plunges from approximately 12 meters down to depths exceeding 28 meters. Divers begin their journey along the gentle slopes before venturing towards this solitary pinnacle. At its peak, a bustling community of small reef fish can be found, often pursued by lionfish and other predators. Circling the pinnacle on the descent, divers are greeted by an abundance of reef life concealed within the structure. Upon reaching the base, the reef gives way to a flatter terrain, yet it still offers a myriad of crevices to explore. The view from the seabed, gazing up at the pinnacle, is truly breathtaking.

I love spotting those blue spotted rays, they're so fun to observe!
That one was recorded on the 360 camera. It took off so quickly that I'm glad the camera picked it up
Nice. I like when you use the 360.
Thank you. I'd forgotten how good Tiga Batu was!
