Briefing of Tokong Timor/ White Rock
This site is approximately 300m off the south western side of the main island. The terrain is generally flat but littered with rocks and boulders. Feather stars of a variety of colours (even white ones) cling on to the surfaces of barrel sponges and anywhere that has good current flow. Sea grass blankets the slopes on the north eastern face giving it a rather familiar landscape. The much-talked about pinnacles are situated here and are two oddly shaped boulders where I found a couple of black groupers hanging around in wait of their next meal. This dive location has a nice display of various soft corals but is surprisingly low on fish varieties. There are however, nice selections on damselfishes, each group guarding their territories. There was a pod of dolphins playing close to the dive location and there has been sightings of whale sharks in the area during the so-called ’whale shark season’ of August, September and October…but don’t take this too literally, animals are almost as temperamental as people, so you may see a few non-conformers , out of season.
