This dive site, Tukas Laut, is located approximately 300-400 meters off Tukas Darat in Tanjung Tukas, Malaysia. It is characterized by a silty and muddy barren bottom, making navigation primarily focused on observing the substrate for macro life rather than large structures. There is no specific history or story provided for the site.
Tukas Laut is renowned as a macro haven, offering exceptional opportunities for observing small critters. Divers can expect to encounter frequent Blue Ring Octopus sightings, a diverse array of Nudibranchs, and various Crustaceans. The barren, silty bottom serves as a unique habitat for these elusive creatures.
The best time to visit Tukas Laut is likely during calmer periods when currents are milder and visibility is better, though specific seasonal information is not provided. Divers should be prepared for potentially strong currents and occasional low visibility, making good buoyancy control and dive planning essential. This site is particularly recommended for macro photographers and critter enthusiasts, but less so for wide-angle photography or those seeking vibrant coral landscapes.
