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) - Gili Layar Corner offers some of Lombok & Gili Islands's richest reef diving. Water ranges 28-30°C, warmest April, May, November.
Gili Layar Corner, a quick ten-minute boat ride from Lombok Eco Dive Resort, offers a relaxed dive along a mini wall. It starts around five meters and slopes down to eighteen, meeting a bright white sandy bottom. You’ll find soft corals clinging to the wall, a good place to spot ornate ghost pipefish if you’re patient and keep a keen eye out. We’ve also seen a decent number of lionfish tucked into crevices and the occasional turtle gliding past. Visibility averages around fourteen meters, and while currents are usually mild, they can pick up a bit sometimes. It’s a comfortable dive, perfect for an easy afternoon, maybe after a more challenging morning.
