Terengganu Marine Park Opens Diving Season, Calls All Divers to Divers’ Paradise

Divers’ paradise and one of the most attractive tourist destinations in Malaysia, Terengganu Marine Park opens its annual diving season. 

The east coast of Malaysia is rich in diving and snorkelling sites that are situated around the island of Pulau Tenggol where one can get in 50 minutes from Tanjong Jara Resort. The diving season lasts from March to October in the Terengganu Marine Park, which is a protected zone of 26 km north of Kuala Terengganu, giving an opportunity of admiring the beautiful coral reefs and amazing species inhabiting them. Warm waters with comfortable day temperature about 32̊ C surround white sand beaches with lush vegetation.

The resort is certified by the Professional Association of Diving Instructors (PADI). The necessary equipment – dive outfits, oxygen for emergency cases – are provided for tourists as well as the instructional courses. Accommodation, breakfast, barbecue lunch during two diving sessions and dinner are guaranteed.

Dive sites have become very popular as they let divers enjoy the miraculous underwater world of plants and animals. One can marvel at quaint colourful fishes, sponges, mollusks, crayfish and even sharks.  Clear deep waters and striking biodiversity of the coral reefs make Malaysia one of the most attractive and tempting tourist destinations for the people tired of hectic city life.
