About Mak Cantik
Mak Cantik is a coral-rich Redang seamount and reef on the southern edge of Pasir Panjang, in front of Redang Reef Resort. The site pairs a rocky outcrop with hard and soft coral gardens, so it works best for confident divers and calm-weather snorkelling. Expect schooling fish, rays and reef sharks when the current settles.
