Batu Chipor

Also known as: Batu Cipor

The rock is barely awash at high tide and a buoy about 20 m away marks the site. Its wall is covered in soft tree corals, leather corals, gorgonians and sea fans, while the sandy bottom holds staghorn, lettuce and boulder corals. Pufferfish and other reef fish are common. redang.org recommends it for experienced divers because the sea can be choppy and currents can run, although the dive itself is fairly shallow. Boat traffic in the channel means it is visited less often today.
