Planning a trip

8–12 days

worth going for

Long haul, usually two flights.

15,896km from Singapore — about 24h each way, so two of those days are travel. 2 dive sites within 25km.

When people dive it

Busiest Jan, Feb, Mar, Apr, Aug, Sep, Oct, Nov, Dec.

From 6,435 logged sightings — when divers are in the water, which is not quite the same as when visibility is best.

Dive Crew is a dive group from Singapore. Members plan trips here, log their dives, and share their photos of each site.

Moon and tides

Waning gibbous

70% lit · day 20 of the lunar month

Neap tides

Neap tides — the smallest range of the month, so the weakest currents. Easy conditions and usually the clearest water, though a drift site may barely drift.

New 10 Oct Full 26 Oct

Phase computed here, not fetched. This is the spring/neap cycle, which sets how hard the water moves — not a tide table: no free source publishes high and low water for Southeast Asian reefs, and the range peaks a day or two after the moon does, by an amount that varies with the coast. For times on the day, ask the operator.

📍 ALPINARSUB Escuela de Buceo on Google Maps 🧭 Route from Buenos Aires

Times marked ~ are estimated from straight-line distance and will be roughly right at best. The road legs are the ones Google Maps answers properly; it will not plan the ferry or the dive boat at all. A dive site's coordinates put a pin in open water, so the map link drops you on the site, not on a jetty.

OpenStreetMap has no other dive sites mapped around here — only the operators below. That means nobody has added them, not that there is nothing to dive.

Sightings and photographs from iNaturalist contributors, research-grade records within 6km, under Creative Commons licences. Counts are what divers and snorkellers have bothered to log — a common fish with few records is common all the same.
