Batu Bolong

About this site

Batu Bolong — 'hollow rock' in Bahasa Indonesia — is a small rocky island surrounded by a reef pinnacle so rich with life that it has been called the Komodo region's greatest dive. The walls from 0 to 40 m are completely covered in sea fans, black coral, and soft corals in orange and purple, while the water column above teems with fusiliers, jacks, and hunting reef sharks. Strong unpredictable currents demand experience and a confident drift technique.
