Why dive here
With 246+ marine species recorded in the area - including blue-spotted stingrays, bull sharks, grey reef sharks, manta rays and mobula rays (devil rays) - Batumulapan offers some of Lombok & Gili Islands's richest diving. Water ranges 28-30°C, warmest April, May, November.
Batumulapan offers a pleasant sloping wall dive, particularly vibrant in the shallows above 14m. We've seen some impressive reef structure here, a good mix of soft fan corals and robust hard corals, including plenty of healthy staghorn. Keep an eye out for Freckled Anglerfish tucked away, and those smaller giant clams are always a nice find. Visibility typically sits around 19m, making it a good spot for divers who appreciate a relaxed pace and detailed reef exploration rather than big pelagic action, though a whitetip reef shark might cruise past.
