    The Snorkelling Reef, off Lombok, is exactly what it sounds like. We’ve found it a good spot for easing back into the water, especially for those new to diving or just certified. The depths here are gentle, letting you take your time. You’ll mostly see patches of seagrass, like clump seagrass and thalassia, with a few blue sea stars dotted around. It’s a nice, calm introduction, but don't expect a riot of color. Think of it as a pleasant warm-up dive.
