Full description

This is a 3-hour experience from Ubud, built around Amed. It is run by Trip Gotik - Bali Tours, 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 Hotel transfer, Snorkeling sessions at Javanese Shipwreck, Turtle Point, Snorkeling guide, Snorkeling equipment and Bread. It does not cover Lunch, Personal expenses and Optional add-ons, 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.

Hotel pickup in Ubud. Trip Gotik - Bali Tours confirms your pickup time and the exact spot once the booking is in. We need at least one day's notice, and we confirm the date with Trip Gotik - Bali Tours before treating your booking as final. If they cannot take your date we tell you and refund you rather than leave you waiting.

This was such a fun experience. The water was so clear and the guide did a great job of helping us see sea turtles and colorful fish. He made sure we stuck together as a group.

I had an excellent time on the snorkel/coffee tasting/Tirta Gangga/Virgin Beach trip! Jack was my tour guide and driver the whole day, and he was amazing! So cheerful and gave me so much information during various stops. The snorkel team was great also! I highly recommend this tour.

Awesome day out to Amed. Snorkelling was insanely good. Crystal clear water, plenty to see! Great guide showing us the best spots to see turtles and fish. Putu was our driver today, he was an incredible guy, super happy and safe for the long trip from Nusa Dua and back. Would pick him for another day out in a heartbeat. 5 stars plus.

Amazing experince! My partner and I were the only two on the boat so although it was tiny - a small, authentic wooden fishing boat - it was perfect. Our guide found the best snorkelling spots and took amazing photos and videos for us. Would definitely recommend adding the GoPro to your booking. Communication and organisation was perfect. The fish - just WOW! The water was so clear and abundant with fish. Only disappointment was viability at the Japanese shipwreck- the water was murky and low visibility so we only snorkelled here for 10mins. Would definitely recommend this trip.

We chose the option with transfer from Ubud. Our Driver Wayan was exceptional! Easy to talk to, gave us a lot of information about life in Bali and their customs. The snorkeling itself was great. The boat crew was knowledgeable and helpful. We snorkelled at 4 spots and managed to see turtles AND dolphins! One note: the facilities are not the greatest so be prepared. The Driver took us to a great lunch spot where we had a lovely meal. I highly recommend this activity and I wouldnt think twice to do this again :)

Our driver and guide Nyoman was great, the water activities were very fun, highly recommend renting a gopro if you want next level footage from Karma, the snorkeling guide! We did the full day tour which also included Tirta Gangga and Virgin Beach, both strongly recommended if you haven’t been yet. Nyoman was patient and kind when we wanted extra time to take some photos, offering to take some for us and also giving us space if he felt we needed some alone time. He also was attentive to provide chill water in the very hot day, it was an absolute worthwhile experience ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
