Diving in Pulau Perhentian the Malaysian

The two Perhentian Kecil islands Pulau Besar and are a paradise for snorkelers and divers. The beach (there are no roads) is packed full of dive schools and the islands are the places where you can make a diving pass at best.

Below are images of two dives. Places on the Temple and Sail Rock, both well-known for its diverse plant and animal life

This filament devil fish (Inimicus filamentosus), which belongs to the family of stone fish, lives very well camouflaged on the sea floor and spreads if disturbed his brood fins and crawls on the sand along, hence its English name Indian Ocean Walkman.

Always nice to see: The angelfish

This fish swarm of yellow stain mackerel shimmered nicely to about 12 meters depth.

Found everywhere, especially on the sponges, are the Babyseegurken.

Very interesting to see the Longfin Batfish who live in flocks of up to 100 copies.

This blue spotted rays belonging to the family of the spot stingray has cleverly hidden under rocks. The intensity of the blue hue can be adjusted depending on camouflage.

The large barrel sponges come here quite often before and are often over a meter high and have a diamenter of up to 40 cm.

With so many fish and corals really every diver goes into raptures, especially if the whole then is as inexpensive as this country! Since there are no luxury resorts and good infrastructure in the Western sense, mass tourism is so far failed to materialize and the coral world still reasonably intact. Even while snorkeling can be here in Malaysia to experience a lot, also directly from the beach! Anyway, I've spent here very much time underwater and it has definitely paid off!
