Malaysia :: Tioman : Chebeh Island

There are a number of spots around Chebeh Island, the most popular being the northeast and southeast corners. The large volcanic rocks form canyons and swimthroughs often full of schooling yellowtail fusiliers, there is also a large cavern filled with glassfish around the 20 meter mark on the southeast corner. Gorgonians are common on the walls here along with barrel sponges and soft corals of every colour. Bigger pelagics often visit this site and a manta or whale shark may even be spotted on their migratory route from the north during the earlier months of the season.
