Sweetlips Rock
The site lies close to Pulau Mataking Kecil, the smaller of the two Mataking islands, and follows a gentle wall to around 18 metres. Oriental sweetlips have made this reef their home, which gave the site its name. Nudibranchs, flatworms and shrimps keep macro photographers busy along the wall, and green turtles can be met in the shallows.
