TK (Tanjung Kubur)
Lembeh Strait · Indonesia
Tanjung Kubur is Lembeh's most visited site for good reason: the black volcanic sand slope at 5 m to 25 m hosts an extraordinary diversity of camouflaged and bizarre macro life in a compact area diveable from shore. Flamboyant cuttlefish hunt in the open and frogfish in 5 different colour morphs occupy the same stretch of rubble within metres of each other.
