Cenote Taak Bi Ha - Yucatán Cenotes

Gili Gede Wall, just a quick five-minute boat ride from Lombok Eco Dive Resort, offers a gentle slope that gradually transitions into a mini wall on the southwest side of Gede. The reef here is pretty healthy, and we often spot nudibranchs, including various flabelina, alongside lobsters, sea cucumbers, and the occasional turtle. Keep an eye out for ghost pipefish and cuttlefish too – they're good at blending in. With a maximum depth of 19 metres and average visibility around 8 metres, it’s a relaxed dive that’s good for working on your spotting skills.
