Malaysia scuba diving - langkawi payar island dive sites of Malaysia.
Pulau Payar is located south east of Langkawi and
north of Penang Island. No form of accommodation is available on the
island and only the marine park center occupies its solitary beach.
Strict conservation laws enforced by marine park rangers around the
island have resulted in prolific marine life. Although at times the
plankton rich waters can reduce visibility the abundance of fishes
makes up for it. Jacks, Fusiliers, black tip sharks, barracudas and
giant groupers are sighted on a regular basis. Coral life is a
mixture of hard and soft corals.
