About Semakau Fish Farm
Semakau Fish Farm is a boat-access dive around netted fish pens off Singapore, where the structures sit on sand and have picked up coral growth and marine life over time. The dive is about moving carefully around the cages and reading the structure rather than chasing a big open reef. It suits a controlled local-operator run because the site is a working farm and the visibility is usually limited. Expect schooling fish, seahorses and lots of activity around the pens.
