Lembeh Straits is known as the muck diving capital of the world. This means that there are alot of sites which are sandy slopes, often with black sand, and the viz is 10-15m. Due to the black sand it is perfect for photographers as this reduces back-glare, and this is why many photographers like coming to dive Lembeh.

It is also one of the few places in the world where you will see unusual creatures such as hairy frog fish, pygmy sea horse, large sea horses and flambouyant cuttlefish to name a few.

Some of our favourite muck sites include Police Pier, Pantai Parigi, Jahir, Retak Larry, Teluk Kembahu 1 and 2 and Hair ball 1 and 2.

Lembeh also has some great ship wrecks. Most of these are covered in corals and critters so are good as wrecks as well as critter-hunting. The wrecks inlude Bimoli wreck, Kapal indah and Mawali wreck.

Last but not least, there are also some sites that have small walls and slopes with soft corals such as Nudi Falls, Nudi Retreat and Angels Window.

Basically there is diving for everyone.
