    Discover colorful coral gardens, tropical fish, turtles, and even manta rays in places like Nusa Penida.

    Snorkeling is suitable for kids, teens, and adults. It’s a fun activity for families, couples, and solo travelers.
  • Perfect way to cool off
    Floating in the ocean is a refreshing escape from Bali’s tropical heat while enjoying the peaceful movements of marine life.

Padang Bai is known for its Blue Lagoon, a sheltered bay with white sand and calm, clear water. It’s ideal for spotting reef fish, eels, and sometimes even turtles. The shallow coral gardens here are colorful and lively, making it a great place for relaxed snorkeling in a tropical setting.

Amed Bali

Amed

Amed offers black-sand beaches and gentle waters. It’s famous for its Japanese shipwreck, which lies in shallow water and is surrounded by vibrant coral and schooling fish. Amed is peaceful, less crowded, and perfect for those who prefer a more laid-back snorkeling experience.

Nusa Penida Bali

Nusa Penida & Lembongan

These two islands off the southeast coast of Bali offer some of the most exciting snorkeling in the region.
