Tanjung Tokong is located on the north tip of Redang Island close to Turtle Bay so it's no surprise that turtles are always seen at this dive site. Both hawksbill turtles and green turtles are seen here. The dive site is a collection of submerged boulders down to 30m deep. Currents can be strong around the boulders which attract bigger hunting fish such as trevally and barracuda that come in to feed on the bait fish here. Schools of snapper and fusilier hang around the boulders as do sweetlips, pufferfish and Moorish idols. Boulders create caves and swim-throughs that are worth exploring for lionfish, scorpionfish and lots of nudibranchs. A torch is useful in the caves. Visibility ranges from 10m-30m.

Tanjung Tokong is a great dive site that actually consists out of three dive sites, one sloping reef, one of deep boulders and a wall dive.
