About This Dive Spot

Baung Penyu Conservation Site, established by Livingseas in mid-2019, is an ongoing project aimed at restoring marine life in the area. The previous reef was significantly damaged, leaving behind coral rubble. To facilitate regrowth, a metal structure has been installed to which corals are attached, promoting the return of marine biodiversity. The sandy slope at this site is now inhabited by various species, including mantis shrimp, moray eels, turtles, anthias, damselfish, butterflyfish, and angelfish.
