About Wrong Entry
Wrong Entry is a Buka Buka boat dive in the Togean Islands with a dramatic drop-off wall, overhangs, and a coral-covered face. It rewards good buoyancy, calm trim, and a relaxed wall traverse in clear water rather than a flat reef swim.
Safety & Access
Site Conditions
Overhead environment
Safety Notes
Keep clear of the overhangs, maintain buoyancy on the wall, and stay conservative if the current shifts or you drift high on the face.
Access Restrictions
Boat access via the island dive operation only; not a casual independent walk-in.
Legal Notes
Follow island and park rules for the Togean National Park area and avoid touching the coral or overhangs.

Community notes to help plan your visit.
Scuba Diving
Best as a controlled wall dive with good trim and a slow traverse along the coral face.
Freediving
Not a freedive-first site; the wall depth and boat logistics make scuba the practical choice.
Snorkeling
Snorkeling is limited to the shallowest edge; the main wall and overhangs are below the surface.
