Pertamina Pier
Also known as Pertamina Jetty, Pertamina Pier is an awesome dive site. Underneath the jetty of the Indonesian fuel company Pertamina is a complete different world. Each pole is covered with sponges and massive sea fans. The shade of the jetty is perfect habitat for school of large Sweetlips, Barracudas, Batfish, Snappers and a lot of huge Scorpionfish. The rocky bottom offers a large diversity of Nudibranchs, Shrimps, and Eels. This very shallow dive site, down to maximum 12-13 meters allow very long dives especially on slack tide as the tide current can be pretty strong.
