With 246+ marine species recorded in the area - including blue-spotted stingrays, bull sharks, grey reef sharks, manta rays and mobula rays (devil rays) - Takat Malang offers some of Lombok & Gili Islands's richest diving. Water ranges 28-30°C, warmest April, May, November.
Takat Malang is a spot off Lombok, often visited by boats from the Gili Islands. We’ve found it’s usually a relaxed drift, with some decent coral patches and reef fish. Visibility can be a bit variable, but it’s generally a pleasant dive for those looking for something straightforward and easygoing, especially if you’re newer to drifting. Expect the usual suspects, like anemonefish and a few turtles if you're lucky.
