Sahaung 2: boat-access pinnacle dive with rich reef life

About Sahaung 2
Sahaung 2 is a boat-access pinnacle dive off Bangka Island in North Sulawesi. The route works around two exposed pinnacles and the ridges between them, with soft-coral slopes, sea fans, and current that can shape the whole dive. Expect schooling fish and the occasional whitetip reef shark, eagle ray, pygmy seahorse, or nudibranch when the water is moving.

Local Intel For Sahaung 2
Community notes to help plan your visit.
Scuba Diving
Scuba divers work the twin pinnacles and ridges; current awareness and buoyancy control matter more than raw depth.
Freediving
Not a freedive-first site; the exposed pinnacles and current make scuba the practical choice.
Snorkeling
