Scuba Diving in Pasir Tengah Atoll, Togian Islands

The Togian Islands (sometimes spelled Togean) are located in the large and deep Tomini Bay in North Sulawesi. This hard to reach dive destination offers fringing reefs, barrier reefs and coral atolls. Waters are clear and warm, corals are pristine and fish life is abundant, a true tropical diving paradise. Togian Islands diving offers something for everyone, from big fish action on deep walls to pretty coral reefs full of colourful fish to macro dives for critter hunters.

Pasir Tengah is a coral atoll with vertical walls that drop to 400m deep! It is one of the Togian Islands best dive sites where you never know what you might see. Schools of trevally are numerous including bluefin, big eye, yellow fin and six banded. Schools of spanish mackeral, wahoo and rainbow runner also storm past divers. In deeper water black tip reef sharks and silky sharks patrol. The walls are covered with corals, gorgonian sea fans and feather stars. Schools of reef fish such as snapper and fusilier are ever present. Macro enthusiasts have the chance to see frogfish, leaf scorpionfish, nudibranchs, shrimps and even Spanish dancers.
