About this site

Police Point is a lesser-known dive site in Komodo National Park, Indonesia, with rocky formations, colourful coral gardens and sandy patches. Schools of anthias and surgeonfish gather here, and turtles, reef sharks and barracuda are seen.

Currents can be strong and the dive is deep, so favourable tides are needed, with slack tide or mild incoming current the best choice. The season runs from March to October.
