Starship is a Wakatobi wall dive with overhangs and critters.
Wakatobi's mapped sites are reached by the resort's day boats.
Starship is a Wakatobi wall dive with a steep ravine, ship-bow reef profile, and lots of holes and small overhangs. Long wire corals, shallow reef pockets, and the mooring area hold shrimps, clownfish, octopus, and other small reef life, while deeper sections add more wall structure and coral growth. It suits relaxed boat-planned scuba days when you want a compact, critter-rich wall rather than an open-water drift.

Scuba Diving
Starship is a beginner-rated wall and ridge dive with overhangs, shallow reef pockets, and deeper lines that reward slow, controlled exploration.

Snorkeling is limited to the shallow reef top; the main draw is the wall and critter hunt below.
