Your dive centre's guide team selects sites each morning based on tidal conditions, weather, group experience level, and marine life reports. You typically visit 2 to 3 different sites per day, or may revisit the same site for multiple dives if conditions are exceptional.
Request specific sites: If you have a must-dive site (e.g., Batu Bolong, Castle Rock), mention it to your operator when booking. They will do their best to include it, conditions permitting.
