Pulau Paku Kecil

Also known as: Paku Kechil · Pulau Paku Kechil

The islet lies just off Long Beach and is reached in about two minutes by boat, so it is one of the most visited sites on Redang. Divers enter at around 7 to 9 m and follow a coral-covered slope to sandy patches at 18 to 20 m, finishing in a rocky area. Schools of razorfish and pipefish live on the sand around the island. Clownfish, turtles, stingrays and devil scorpionfish are commonly reported, with the occasional blacktip reef shark or bumphead parrotfish. The site can be dived at high or low tide.
