Pulau Rawa

Also known as: Rawa Island

Beyond the shallow beach the seabed turns into rocky outcrops and boulders that form tunnels, small caves and swim-throughs. Sea fans grow in the channels, black corals cluster on the boulders, and the hard corals are in good condition. Nurse sharks rest in crevices, while blacktip reef sharks, bumphead parrotfish, trevally and schooling snappers pass by. The island is also a well-known snorkelling spot with clear water.
