About Terumbu Tiga (T3)
Terumbu Tiga (T3) is a boulder maze of three massive rock stacks and smaller blocks, with channels, swim-throughs and coral-covered slopes that reward careful buoyancy. It is a shore-accessible Perhentian classic for wide-angle scenery, small critters and regular fish action rather than a fast current dive. It is especially good for buoyancy practice and mixed wide-angle or macro sessions.
