Dive Spot Guide•
Kolo-Kolo
Popular Selayar wall dive with gorgonians and drift.
Boat-accessed limestone wall east of Selayar with mild current, clear water, and strong macro and wide-angle potential; best for divers who like a slow drift rather than a sheltered reef hop.
About Kolo-Kolo
Kolo-Kolo is a classic east-Selayar boat dive on a limestone wall, usually run as a slow drift from Pattumbukan. The site combines a coral-rich wall, caves, overhangs, and a reef top that makes it good for both wide-angle scenery and macro subjects, with enough structure for multiple relaxed passes along the wall at a time.
