Redang dive-site guide describing Tanjung Tengah as an easy shore-access site in front of Pasir Panjang, commonly used for discovery dives and night dives, and among the island's busiest house reefs.
Tanjung Tengah
Arrecife principal muy concurrido con acceso desde playa y una zona de cría en Bahía de los Tiburones.
Acerca de Tanjung Tengah
Tanjung Tengah es el arrecife principal frente a Pasir Panjang en Redang, donde una larga playa de arena permite a buceadores y personas que practican snorkel entrar caminando directamente a un arrecife somero usado para inmersiones desde costa fáciles, sesiones de iniciación, entradas nocturnas y recorridos tranquilos por el arrecife. El lado sur es ampliamente conocido como Bahía de los Tiburones porque los tiburones juveniles de arrecife de punta negra usan las aguas someras, y en el arrecife también aparecen barracudas, tortugas, rayas, calamares y peces de arrecife comunes cerca de la costa. Como es uno de los arrecifes más fáciles de alcanzar en la isla, también es uno de los más concurridos. Mantente dentro del área señalizada del arrecife, vigila las embarcaciones fuera de la línea de natación y usa una flotabilidad cuidadosa sobre el coral muy somero cerca de la costa.
