About D'wall
D'wall is a boat-access wall dive off a small Malaysian island, with a shallow broken-coral lip that drops into a colorful wall lined with soft corals, sea whips, and gorgonians. It suits intermediate divers who want a relaxed drift profile, strong reef structure, and plenty of fish life without a long transit or complicated entry.
