Pulau Run

Also known as: Run · Pulau Rhun · Run Island

Thanks to its remote position, Run has outstanding reefs that see few divers. A sloping reef becomes a wall hung with big sea fans and busy with reef fish, and its overhangs and crevices shelter soldierfish and rays. Schools of snapper, fusiliers and sweetlips are common, and blue-spotted stingrays are seen on the reef. Local operators report hammerheads, eagle rays, devil rays, big tuna and schooling bumphead parrotfish around the island. The boat ride from Banda Neira takes up to about two hours, so it is usually combined with neighbouring Nailaka.
