Nusa Penida snorkeling

The process was reasonably smooth with good communication. All the staff were friendly and kind, and the dive guides were very attentive and cared well for everyone while also getting plenty of photos for everyone to have good memories! A few words of wisdom: if there’s any possibility you get seasick - take meds. Don’t wait. I’m good on boats but the surf was choppy that day and even though I was fine on the ferry I (& others) hurled on the tour boat. My tour didn’t see any turtles or manta rays and that’s okay, I still saw cool fish and beautiful coral! They do not bait the wildlife and I love the respect that shows for the animals and natural environment! They provide towels and lunch after, you can pack light! Your boat is covered, but I’d definitely recommend a reef safe sunscreen (can buy at pharmacy)! The guides take wonderful pictures, and you can ask for specific requests! You can leave extra bags with the kind shore staff so you don’t crowd the boat. Overall great experience!

Overall, the staff were incredibly kind and helpful, making it a truly memorable and enjoyable day. This tour is essential for anyone wanting to fully experience Nusa Lembongan with an efficient schedule. I was thrilled to see manta rays while snorkeling. It was also fun to see beautiful fish at the other two snorkeling spots. For lunch, you can choose from curry, Nasi Goreng, or Mie Goreng, and it also comes with fruit. We were also given complimentary water. We visited scenic viewpoints and enjoyed ourselves until the boat departed. This tour is highly recommended and offers excellent value for the price!

This tour was the absolute highlight of our Bali trip! My sister and I had the best time, all thanks to our amazing guides who were so kind and attentive from start to finish. First off, our driver, Dede😎 was fantastic. He drove very safely, and his communication for the pick-up and transfers was prompt and clear. He made sure we were completely comfortable throughout the journey. Our Nusa Penida tour guide, Agus😝, was simply the best!👍 His great sense of humor and engaging explanations made the tour so much fun. Hearing his stories about Bali from a true local’s perspective gave us a deeper understanding of the culture and life here, making the trip so much more meaningful. The boat snorkeling was unreal—we saw SO many manta rays! 🐠They were much bigger, and there were way more of them than I expected. Swimming with them was truly a breathtaking experience. A huge thank you to our wonderful guides for making our day in Bali so unforgettable. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

To get thrown into rough sea to see Manta Rays at Manta Bay was scary for beginners or non swimmers, best to start at Crystal Beach and work your way up to the different places would cause less anxiety for them! I loved the experience it was a highlight of my trip to Bali as always wanted to do it but very expensive elsewhere.

what a great day! picked up on time, great boat to Nusa Penida and met at arrival and taken to the company who does the snorkeling. We had booked a private boat, just the 2 of us and it was perfect. 1 of the crew swam with us leading the way pointing out thing of interest etc and the boat followed so no having to swim back to boat along way away. Saw turtles, barracuda and so many beautiful fish. Would recommend

An amazing snorkeling experience! I booked the Nusa Lembongan and Nusa Penida 3-dive-site tour (including Manta Point) on Klook two days in advance. You can choose your departure location. It runs from 9:30 AM to 2:00 PM, with complete hotel-to-boat round-trip transfer. Before snorkeling starts, they drive you to the pier for a welcome drink, restroom break, clothes changing, and equipment fitting. There are about 10 people per boat, and the guide prioritizes spots with fewer people and more fish based on the conditions of the day. When you reach a dive site, you jump off the boat yourself, and you stay at each site for about ten minutes. The guide calls everyone to stay close together the whole time to prevent anyone from getting lost, and at the end, they help everyone take off their fins one by one and climb the ladder back onto the boat. The scenery along the way is truly super beautiful! Not only did I see the full views of Nusa Lembongan, Nusa Penida, and Ceningan Island, but I also saw the rare manta rays (two of them!) and sea turtles (two of them!) underwater! The coral reefs here are all colorful, and the schools of fish are densely packed. So pretty! My teammate was doing snorkeling for the very first time and was very scared. The guide had her hold onto a life ring, pulled her along with a rope the entire time, and promptly pushed others away to avoid underwater collisions. Very considerate. The boat provides everyone with a mask, snorkel, fins, life jacket, bottled ice water, and a towel. Seriously, coming out of the water is so cold, and wrapping up in a towel brings you back to life. I will definitely come again next time!

We originally booked this as a day trip from Sanur, but as we were staying on Lembongan Island, the operator kindly arranged a different return boat for us. We really appreciated their flexibility. The waves were too strong to visit the manta ray spot, but we visited four other snorkeling spots instead. The water was surprisingly clear, and we saw lots of fish, which was great fun. Some spots were quite crowded with other groups and boats, so it was difficult to snorkel freely and safely. Still, overall, we really enjoyed the snorkeling experience.

What a great diving experience! However, the dive center is located in Nusa Dua, so our first trip from the main island involved a boat ride of over 40 minutes to reach the dive site. It was a bit challenging, and the boat was quite shaky. But the rest of the experience was fantastic! We saw many manta rays at Manta Point, and even a black manta! There were so many that we eventually got a bit lazy about taking photos, haha. Unfortunately, we didn't see any Mola Mola during the second dive at Crystal Bay. The third dive, a drift dive at the Mangrove in Nusa Lembongan, was also excellent; there were so many large fish there! The dive guide-to-diver ratio was 1:2, which is an excellent setup, ensuring safety and preventing overcrowding. I highly recommend Bali Diving!

The diving instructor is helpful in guiding a beginner who has no prior experience. He helps take lots of photos which can be purchased at a price. The acitivity is relatively expensive for the price level in Indonesia, although overall it is a nice experience especially being able to see lots of manta!
