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) - Sunset Reef offers some of Lombok & Gili Islands's richest reef diving. Water ranges 28-30°C, warmest April, May, November.
Sunset Reef offers a gentle coral slope, making it a good option for less experienced divers or those looking for a relaxed afternoon. We usually spot a scattering of reef fish here – angelfish, butterflyfish, and the occasional moray eel peeking from a crevice. It’s a pleasant enough spot, calm and shallow, ideal for longer bottom times and practicing buoyancy. Don't expect dramatic action, but it's a solid, easy dive.
