Shoal Big Fishes
These are a set of pinnacles off the Northern tip of Lembeh Island. This is the best big fish dive in North Sulawesi, but severe multi-directional currents prevent all but only the most experienced divers from venturing here. The density of schooling fish is staggering, with larger species such as dogtooth Tuna, Barracuda, big-eyed Jacks, giant Trevally and rainbow Runner well represented.
Turtles, White tip and Grey reef Sharks as well as Eagle Rays are also common. Even Silver tip and Whale Sharks have been spotted here by the lucky few. Great hard and soft corals; with a lot of yellow tube corals (Tubastrea).
