About this site
Marble Rock is a shore entry dive site on Timor-Leste's coast, built around a wall covered in healthy, colourful corals. Larger pelagic fish cruise past, and giant trevally, tuna and Spanish mackerel are the usual chances to spot.
On a lucky day an eagle ray, a turtle, a whitetip reef shark or a Napoleon wrasse may appear. A wide angle lens suits the scenery, and snorkelling is possible as well.
Strong currents run here, so a reef hook is often necessary, and the site is best dived around the slack-to-incoming tidal phase.
