    StandoutExceptional marine biodiversity

    Gili Asahan’s slope is a mellow dive, a good pick for a relaxed afternoon. We’re talking about a sandy bottom that gently slopes down to 16 meters, sprinkled with some coral patches. There's an artificial reef here, too, which has done a decent job of attracting soft corals. You’ll find puffers and porcupine fish often hanging around, maybe a moray eel tucked into a crevice. Visibility hovers around 11 meters, so it’s not always super crisp, but clear enough to spot the lionfish and scorpionfish camouflaged on the bottom. It’s a pretty easy dive, currents are usually mild, making it a comfortable spot for newer divers or anyone just wanting a chill time underwater.
