Diving in Bangka
Promising some of the best diving in Indonesia, Bangka Island is famed for its wild scenery and fantastically-preserved dive sites. Here you won’t just enjoy walls, but gorges and swim-throughs too as you and the reefs are pristine. If you like your dive sites teeming with wildlife, keep an eye out for the pilot whales, eagle rays, mackerel and turtles that populate these waters, while beginner divers can make the most of the calm, shallow waters, in fact Bangka is known as one of the best places in Indonesia to learn to dive.
