About Siladen Timur
Siladen Timur is a boat-accessed reef-and-wall site off Siladen, with a shallow coral plateau and coral boulders that ease into a gently sloping wall. Sea fans and soft corals line the slope, and the site is known for macro life such as nudibranchs, ribbon eels, lionfish, scorpionfish, mantis shrimp, crocodile fish, and occasional turtles. Currents are usually manageable but can tighten on corners, so it suits divers who are comfortable with a light drift.
