Sampalan (Nusa Penida, Bali)

Sampalan, off the northeast corner of Nusa Penida, gives you a comfortable drift. We typically see a good number of fish here, often schools of fusiliers zipping past. The reef itself has some interesting structures: big coral bommies, barrel sponges, and some really chunky, compact corals. If you keep an eye out into the blue, you might catch a glimpse of something larger swimming by. It’s a site that suits anyone comfortable with a gentle current, keen to just watch the world go past.
