Tanjung Pisok is a boat accessible salt water dive site, located in Manado, North Sulawesi, Indonesia.
A "Pisok" is swallow and refers to the amount of swallows that like to pick up insects at dusk and dawn at this site.
Tanjung Pisok is a spawning site for groupers. It is not very likely for you to observe that, as this happens only rarely, but several studies have confirmed that groupers have chosen this area to reproduce.
Until 20 metres depth it is a slope with large pipe corals and after that a wall dropping in steps. There are sandy patches with blue ribbon eels and there is a chance of seeing larger groupers, but also parrotfishes, Napoleons and eagle rays.Current can be intensely strong.
