Info

- You may also bring a your swimsuit and a waterproof bag with a towel, hat, sunscreen, sunglasses, snacks, and any supplies you may need for the day Manta Point – Depth 15m Manta Point is a rock that emerges near a cliff on the south coast of Nusa Penida. Manta rays come to this area to be cleaned and swim around the small pinnacles filtering water to eat plankton. This is the perfect spot to find manta rays all year round. The visibility here is often poor (10m) because this site is loaded with plankton. Manta rays swim with divers and have fun with their visitors. Occasionally we can count up to 15 of them! Crystal Bay – Depth 18-30m Crystal Bay is located between the islands of Nusa Penida and Nusa Lembongan. It is one of the most famous dive sites in Bali, because it is one of the only places in the world where we have the opportunity to meet the extraordinary giant sunfish (Mola-Mola), which can be more than 3 meters in size. These pelagics come near the surface (15-40m) to be cleaned by feeder fish. Sun fish normally live very deep and rise during the summer months (from July to October) because the current changes at this time. The water is clear and the bay is beautiful. Outside the Mola-Mola season, the diving is spectacular. The site is rich in coral and there is the opportunity to see many different species – clown fish, sweet lips, Anthias, angel fish, trigger fish, and so many more!
