Why dive here
With 515+ marine species recorded in the area - including barracuda, blue-spotted stingrays, bull sharks, giant moray eels and manta rays - Blue Corner offers some of Bali's richest drift diving. Water ranges 29-31°C, warmest April, November, December.
Blue Corner is pure adrenaline. We love this site not just for the bigger stuff, but for how it makes you feel like you’re truly part of the ocean’s wild pulse. Dropping in, you're immediately hit with the unmistakable scent of the deep sea. The current here can be a serious ride, which is exactly why we come back. The real show begins when you hook into the reef. You’ll spend most of your dive watching the blue. Schools of Yellowstripe Monocle Bream drift past, almost oblivious to the powerful flow. Look out for the tiny Yellowskin Dwarfgoby flitting amongst the Staghorn coral, a stark contrast to the big pelagics that might cruise by in the distance. We’ve had incredible encounters here, from the distant shadows of mola mola in season to the constant stream of eagle rays gliding against the current. It’s an advanced dive, no question, best for those comfortable with strong drifts and willing to spend time suspended, just observing. Our advice? Go with a guide who knows the currents inside out and don’t forget your reef hook.
