DIVING DAY TRIP · NUSA PENIDA & LEMBONGAN

Dive into Bali’s wild side

Leave Tulamben for a day and discover the iconic dive sites of Nusa Penida and Nusa Lembongan, with reefs, drift dives and the possibility of encountering manta rays.

ANOTHER SIDE OF BALI

A day of reefs, drift dives and open seascapes

This excursion offers a different atmosphere from the local dives around Tulamben. Around Nusa Penida and Nusa Lembongan, reefs and underwater landscapes unfold in more open water, with cooler temperatures, possible currents and the chance to encounter pelagic life. The program and sites are selected according to the day’s conditions.

AN ICONIC ENCOUNTER

In search of manta rays

Nusa Penida is known for areas visited by manta rays. This encounter is entirely natural and depends on conditions, the season, animal behaviour and the sites selected that day. We look for them in their natural environment without ever promising their presence.

THE DAY’S PROGRAM

Sites selected according to conditions

No specific site is guaranteed in advance. Your guide builds the program around your experience and the conditions observed on the day.

Manta Point

A cleaning station along a cliff where manta rays regularly come to be cleaned and can gather in numbers. An iconic dive between 9 and 20 metres, offering the chance to observe these giants in their natural environment.

Crystal Bay

A beautiful bay surrounding a rocky pinnacle, with particularly rich marine life. Mola mola, turtles and sharks may be encountered while exploring a spectacular drop-off covered in life.

SD

A drift dive along Nusa Penida above a beautiful coral drop-off. Large schools of fish, turtles and rarer macro life make this site particularly interesting for divers who enjoy searching for smaller creatures.

FROM BREAKFAST TO YOUR RETURN

Your day begins with breakfast at Scuba Tribe before the drive to Padangbai. From there, we board the boat for Nusa Penida and Nusa Lembongan. After three dives, we return to Padangbai for lunch at a restaurant before driving back to Tulamben.
