BARRACUDA POINT
Malaysia
Sporty dive site
Barracuda Point is without a doubt one of the top 5 dive sites in the world. Do you know those images of enormous schools of barracudas? They are probably made at Barracuda Point. The schools are so big that they block out the sunlight. Barracuda Point is also home to hammerhead sharks, parrotfish, turtles and more. All this takes place near a steep wall that slopes down to 22 meters.
Particulars
Barracuda Point can be reached by boat. Enter the water and let yourself be carried away by the current. After a nice drift you'll end your dive in a coral garden in the shallows. You'll remember this as one of your most beautiful dives!
Warnings
Barracuda Point has a fairly strong current. Pleasure craft pass by at Barracuda Point. Possibly use a diving buoy.
