Short boat ride from Tinabo Besar to an exposed park pinnacle where tides matter and sharks, rays, and schooling fish are the main draw.
About Ibel D’Orange
Ibel D’Orange is a boat-accessed pinnacle in Taka Bonerate National Park, reached by a short run from Tinabo Besar. The site rises sharply from open park water, with coral and fish concentrated on the top and slope. It suits experienced divers who can work around tides and use a local boat operator, because the dive is short, exposed, and not a casual shore target.
