About Salang Jetty

It might sound surprising but the jetty in Salang Bay has become an amazing muck dive site. With the debris people throw over board and over the jetty, B&J Diving Centre has built over the years an artificial reef which attracts an abundance of marine life. Shoals of juvenile fish are seeking safety here, which then attracts the big predators such as travellies, garfishes and barracudas. Nudibranchs glide along the sandy bottom while moray eels and shrimp seek shelter in some of the broken of pillars. It's classical muck diving with lots of surprises The jetty is now one of our prime night dive sites, so a night dive here is an absolute must for every keen diver.
