Boat-access reef off Pramuka Island
Boat-access reef off Pramuka Island
Tanjung Penyu is a shallow reef dive just off Pramuka Island in the Thousand Islands. It is usually reached by a short boat transfer, has good coral and plenty of macro life, and can get choppy when seasonal winds pick up. The site fits newer divers well when the sea is settled, though the surface can feel livelier than the reef itself.
Site Conditions
Safety Notes
Watch the surface for wind chop, use a local operator on departure days, and keep an eye on the reef and turtle traffic.
Access Restrictions
Use a local operator and watch departure timing, since the surface can change quickly with seasonal wind.
Legal Notes
Follow island and marine-site rules and any local operator guidance for the Thousand Islands.
Community notes to help plan your visit.
Scuba Diving
Good for macro-focused scuba diving.
Freediving
Possible in calm water, but the site is better treated as an easy boat-reef dive than a freedive specialty spot.
Snorkeling
Snorkeling is possible in calm water, but the reef is more rewarding for divers than casual snorkelers.
