About this site

Tanjung Kopi is a coral-encrusted slope on the north side of Manado Tua in Bunaken Marine Park. It is one of the most successful sites for spotting blacktip reef sharks, and the slope is prone to currents.

The adult sharks tend to come shallower in the early morning and again in the afternoon, and spend the middle of the day at 40 m or deeper. They are shy and often pass several metres below at speed. Strong currents are possible, and the site is rated for advanced divers.
