Diving Bangka Strait - Divers Lodge Lembeh

To the north of Lembeh Strait, the island of Bangka falls away to a 2000-meter deep sea and offers a different landscape for diving. Here, steep rock formations are overgrown with corals and visibility often exceeds 30 metres. You will find lots of colour on walls full of healthy fan corals, enormous table corals with sharks resting underneath and lots of fish typically seen on coral reefs. Dugongs and sunfish (mola mola) have also been spotted here. Although the current can be strong, it is always possible to dive in the shelter of the huge rocks.
