About this site
Turtle Bay lies off Derawan Island, part of the Derawan Archipelago in East Kalimantan, Indonesia, an area within the Coral Triangle that also includes Maratua, Sangalaki, and Kakaban. The site sits along the reef fringing Derawan itself, a short boat ride from the island's small dive operations. It is rated a beginner dive, making it accessible to divers with limited experience.
