Exploring Bali’s Underwater Havens After the Pandemic

Returning to Bali and the idyllic islands of Nusa Lembongan and Penida, the atmosphere is distinctly different in the aftermath of the pandemic. Usually bustling with activity, the islands now stand in serene quietness, offering a unique and tranquil setting. With dive sites and beaches devoid of the typical crowds, the experience becomes more intimate, allowing for a deeper connection with the underwater wonders and coastal beauty.
The renowned sites of Manta Point, SD, Mangrove, Blue Corner, and Toyapakeh are among South-Eastern Bali’s best dive sites. Manta Point offers unparalleled encounters with these majestic creatures, while SD and Mangrove boast abundant reef fish and stunning corals. Blue Corner’s depth and speed provide opportunities for pelagic encounters, and Toyapakeh, with its diverse conditions, guarantees fantastic diving experiences regardless of the current’s direction. Each site contributes to an unforgettable exploration of the underwater wonders of these islands.
Diving alongside our friend Rich and Big Fish Divers, the absence of other customers on the boat is becoming a new normal, providing a unique and intimate underwater experience.
“Nusa Lembongan’s life feels like a distant haven, isolated from the hustle and bustle of the outside world.”
