Location and Accessibility:

Situated between Komodo Island and Tatawa Besar, Batu Bolong offers convenient access to divers exploring the Komodo National Park. The site's central position and its exceptional underwater diversity make it a prime location for thrilling dives.

Currents and Diving Experience:

​Batu Bolong is famous for its strong currents, attracting more experienced divers seeking an exhilarating underwater adventure. These currents predominantly affect one side of the rock, while the other side provides a safer diving experience. Typically, the south side of the rock is protected from the current, offering a shielded area for divers. However, depending on the season, weather, and tide, the north side can also be explored if the current is not too strong. It's crucial to follow your professional dive guide's instructions to maximize your dive experience while ensuring safety.

Underwater Marvels:

As you descend into the depths of Batu Bolong, you'll be greeted by a vibrant and diverse marine ecosystem. The top of the rock, just below the water's surface, is adorned with colorful hard corals, setting the stage for an awe-inspiring spectacle. As you venture down the sloping sides of the rock, you'll encounter impressive large sponges and an abundance of colorful fish that will leave you in awe. The dive area extends to a depth of 30-35 meters, and your dive guide will expertly guide you along the large coral wall while exploring the underwater wonders.

Marine Life Encounters:

Prepare yourself for breathtaking encounters with a rich variety of marine creatures while diving at Batu Bolong. From graceful reef sharks and magnificent mantas to impressive napoleon wrasses and dogtooth tunas, the marine life diversity will captivate your senses. You might also come across barracudas, giant sweetlips, and tuna, creating a mesmerizing underwater symphony. For the keen-eyed observer, Batu Bolong reveals a treasure trove of micro-creatures, including pygmy seahorses, nudibranchs, crabs, and other fascinating inhabitants. Don't forget to bring your underwater camera to capture these magical moments, and consider using a red filter for the deeper areas.

Ever-Changing Landscape:

One of the most remarkable aspects of diving at Batu Bolong is the ever-changing landscape. With an abundance of coral gardens and schools of fish constantly coming and going, each dive offers a unique and mesmerizing experience. It's virtually impossible to witness everything this incredible site has to offer in just one dive. Exploring Batu Bolong will leave you longing to return and discover more of its underwater wonders.
