Batu Caping

Also known as: Batu Chaping

Steep drop-offs, overhangs and narrow crevices form swim-throughs between the boulders. Daisy corals grow under the overhangs, and sea fans and whip corals cover the rock. Occasional currents bring barracuda and yellowtail trevally, while bamboo sharks, spiny lobsters, moray eels and boxfish hide in the cracks. Blue-spotted stingrays and coral groupers are also common.
