Full description

This is a 2.5-hour experience from Nusa Penida, built around Speedboat, Manta Bay and Gamat Bay. It is run by BIMA BALI JOURNEY, an operator we book with directly rather than through a reseller, which is why we can hold your place with them before we treat your booking as final.

Snorkelling off Nusa Penida is about the reef manta rays at Manta Point on the island's south coast, where they are present year-round, feeding and being cleaned in the swell at the base of the cliffs. Boats then move to calmer spots such as Crystal Bay, Gamat Bay and the wall at Buyuk for coral and fish. Between July and October, Crystal Bay is also the place divers come for the oceanic sunfish, mola mola, which rise from deep water in the cooler months. Manta Point is exposed to southern swell and boats skip it when the sea is up, so a day here is always weather-dependent. The crossing from Sanur is thirty to forty-five minutes.

The price covers Snorkeling adventure to 3-4 locations, Snorkeling Sharing Boat, Opportunity to see marine life such as Manta Rays, Snorkeling Gear and Towel. It does not cover Personal Expenses, so budget for those separately. Everything included is listed in full on this page; if something is not on that list, assume it is not in the price.

Arjuna Beach Club Nusa penida. We need at least one day's notice, and we confirm the date with BIMA BALI JOURNEY before treating your booking as final. If they cannot take your date we tell you and refund you rather than leave you waiting.

Frequently Asked Questions

Arjuna Beach Club Nusa penida
The price does not cover personal expenses. Everything it does cover is listed in full on this page, so if something is not on that list, budget for it separately.
The strait to Nusa Penida and the manta sites take open-ocean swell. On big days the operator diverts to sheltered sites or cancels the crossing, and that is their call on the morning, not ours. If a cancellation is theirs you are refunded in full. Keep phones and passports in a dry bag; boarding at some harbours means wading from the beach.
We confirm your booking with the operator before we treat it as final, and we need at least one day's notice. Once it is confirmed you get the meeting point, the time and a contact number for the day. If the operator cannot take your date we tell you and refund you rather than leave you waiting.
