Tiger Reef Tioman is a submerged pinnacle between Labas and Sepoi, built on volcanic rock and draped in soft coral. The reef rises to a shallow top and drops into deeper water, with channels and coral heads that give experienced divers places to tuck in when the current builds. It is a better fit for confident boat divers than beginners because the site can run fast and visibility can swing with the flow. Expect barracuda, reef sharks, jacks, and plenty of smaller reef life on a good day.
