Why dive here
With 118+ marine species recorded in the area - including manta rays, mobula rays (devil rays), orcas, sea turtles and sperm whales - Jellyfish Lake offers some of Derawan Islands's richest diving.
Jellyfish Lake in the Derawan Islands offers something truly unique: a chance to snorkel amongst thousands of stingless jellyfish. It's a surreal experience, floating in warm, brackish water surrounded by these delicate, pulsing creatures. While not a dive site, it’s a brilliant surface interval activity for anyone looking for a different kind of marine encounter. Just remember your mask and snorkel.
