Pulau Labas has two dive sites depending on the conditions. This is a really nice reef with many caverns and swimthroughs full of fishes. This dive is very easy and perfect for beginners as there is usually no current and the reef is quite shallow. You can see blacktip sharks as well as many Titan trigger fish and moray eels. Also a good place for underwater photography in Tioman!
Best time to dive: the ideal period to plan holidays here isFebruary to March. Access: from the Shore. See the map of Pulau Labas on the right for the exact location.

Nice and easy diving in clear water and beautiful coral reefs. Good location to take diving courses.
I’ve dived here many times with the liveaboard operation, Whitemanta. The swim-throughs are epic!
I dived thru an underwater cave at Pulau Labas, many years back and I loved it!! It was an experience not to be missed!! Beautiful! Absolutely unforgettable. Loved every second….
