Description

Teluk Dalam that means "Deep Gulf", is about 1 mile in length. It affords good shelter from all but SE winds, which, however, do not cause much swell, and is free from dangers.
It is easily recognized by Tanjung Batu, the N entrance point, which is dark, nearly perpendicular, and 96m high, and has but little reef fronting it.
A pier at the head of the bay has a depth of 2m at its head.

Anchorage

A good anchorage, in 18m, may be obtained with the pier head bearing 327° and Tanjung Batu bearing 096°.

Directions

Vessels should steer up the center of the bay on a 297° course, passing about 0.2 mile off Tanjung Batu, to the anchorage.

Leading beacons are situated at the head of the inlet; the front beacon is situated on the head of the pier while the rear beacon is situated at the head of the inlet, about 183m NW of the front beacon. The beacons, in line bearing 324°, lead into the inlet.

Anchorage depth: 17.1m - 18.2mCargo pier depth: 1.8m - 3m
