About this site
Batu Pica lies off Bangka Island, a small island north of the Sulawesi mainland in the Bangka Archipelago near Likupang, within the Coral Triangle. The site reaches a maximum depth of around 15 metres and is rated an advanced dive, largely due to rough currents that divers have reported passing through the area. It is accessed by boat from operators based on Bangka or the nearby North Sulawesi coast.
