Some divers rate this the best of the Perhentian dive sites. Three large boulders extending above the water mark this site off the center of the east cost of Perhentian Besar. The boulders tumble down to the sandy bottom at around 22 meters, and are covered with hard and soft corals, including soft tree corals.
Marine life includes shoals of trevallies, snappers and parrotfish, as well as anemones, clownfish, groupers, angelfish, spotted rays and wrasses. There's also a fair selection of macro life forms to found if you look carefully.
