Batu Kapal

Also known as: Ship Rock

The twin pinnacles are small, so they are usually combined with Shark Point in one dive. Whip corals and encrusting corals cover the rock, with crevices and channels between the pinnacles. Blacktip reef sharks, fusiliers, yellowtail trevally and moray eels are seen here. Indian walkman live on the bottom, and at night divers can hear the croaking of toadfish.
