Terumbu Tiga or Tiger Rock as it is known in English is regarded as one of the best dive sites in the Perhentian Islands. This dive site has it all. Boulder formations create valleys and swim-throughs which are lined with gorgonian seafans. There are patches of hard coral such as staghorn, table and brain coral. Soft coral and barrel sponges plus sea whips and feather stars provide the color. Small reef fish like anthias and damsels flit in and out of coral heads. Schools of snapper and fusiliers move together as groups. Leopard sharks can be seen resting on the edge of the reef in the sand. White tip reef sharks can be seen further out in the blue. The maximum depth is 20m and visibility ranges from 5-15m. Currents can be strong.
