Outside: strong-current Selayar drift-wall dive
Boat-accessed Selayar wall dive with a sandy slope, limestone wall, and strong current that often turns the entry into a drift or negative drop.
About Outside
A boat-access drift dive off a Selayar cape, where a sandy slope quickly drops into a limestone wall with ledges, caverns, and overhangs. The site is best known for strong current, occasional negative entries, and passing pelagics such as reef sharks, eagle rays, tuna, and schooling jacks. Soft corals, anemones, and other wall life add colour when the water is clear enough to stay on the line.

Local Intel For Outside
Community notes to help plan your visit.
Scuba Diving
Depending on the current, divers may need to perform a negative entry to reach the spot.
Freediving
Not a sensible freedive site; the current and wall profile make it a scuba drift dive.
Snorkeling
Not a snorkel target; the useful structure is on a current-swept wall below the surface.
