About Tokong Bahara
Tokong Bahara is a boat-access Tioman dive on a submerged pinnacle and wall, with soft corals, sponges and reef growth that make it a strong exploration dive. The site is remote and current-fed, so plan it with a local operator and expect the conditions, not the reef, to set the pace. On good days, the moving water can bring in bigger fish and clean water.
