Tioman Diving Yacht Charter
Tioman Island lies at the heart of the South China Sea. Turquoise waters, sandy shores and a rich marine life, make it one of the world's most breathtaking diving locations. Tioman is a great scuba diving destination for both beginners and experienced divers alike, thanks to a whole host of unique and well preserved dive sites, with 29 on offer.
Visibility ranges from 5m to 30m, depending on the season. Generally during March until May and then again from September until November are the months that provide the diver with the best underwater visibilities. Tioman is a very safe diving destination, as divers aren't exposed to any strong tidal currents. What's more, sea temperatures range from 27 to 29 degrees.
Tioman Island is indeed blessed with some world-class dive sites. The majority of these unspoilt sites are accessible by boat in less than 30 minutes. Tioman's resident marine life includes; bat fishes, titan triggers, butterfly, bumphead and parrot fishes, nurse sharks, scorpions, blue dotted stingrays, yellow striped snappers, moray eels, yellowtail fusiliers and zebra lions to name a few!

Alternatively, snorkelling is a fantastic way to admire Tioman's diverse underwater world, it's inexpensive and requires very little equipment.
