Why dive here
With 515+ marine species recorded in the area - including barracuda, blue-spotted stingrays, bull sharks, giant moray eels and manta rays - Diving Spot offers some of Bali's richest diving. Water ranges 29-31°C, warmest April, May, November.
We call it "Diving Spot" because sometimes the best places don't need fancy names. What you’ll find here is a genuine surprise, a real macro delight, especially if you've done the big pelagic stuff elsewhere in Bali and fancy a change of pace. We love it for its sheer density of smaller, harder-to-spot characters. Drop in and you're immediately looking for movement in the rubble. It’s not a big reef wall, more a gentle slope of sand and scattered coral bommies that really rewards a slow, deliberate dive. Keep an eye out for the Short-head Sabretooth Blenny, darting in and out of its tiny bolt-hole, always ready to pose for a quick shot. We’ve spent whole dives just watching the different wrasse species, particularly the Slender Maori and Hoeven’s wrasse, as they go about their business. You'll definitely want a good macro lens for this site, and maybe a keen-eyed guide who knows where the resident Whitespot Damsels like to hide. Currents are usually pretty mild, making it ideal for photographers or anyone who just wants to take their time. This is a perfect spot for divers who appreciate the intricate details of the reef floor, rather than sweeping panoramas.
