Scuba Diving in Indonesia
Description
We dive around Gili Tepekong and Mimpang in Amuk Bay from a Jukung (departure from Padang Bai).
We usually add one more dive at Secret Jetty, Ferry Chanel, Gili Biaha or any other dive site in Padang Bai.
Note that Gili Tepekong, Gili Mimpang, Gilia Biaha and Ferry Channel are for experienced divers only.
GILI TEPEKONG: Strong currents coupled with superb marine life and stunning hard and soft coral makes this dive site an unforgettable experience. You can dive on various sites around the island depending on the conditions. You can see great walls, and have an amazing swim through a canyon. There are many caves, some with reef sharks and several huge boulders from the cliffs above which create an underwater aisle. You may also find many fish feeding and sheltering from the currents.
GILI MIMPANG: The topography of Mimpang is diverse, with sloping reefs, craggy rocks and walls all with hard and soft corals and some gorgonians. Big schools of fish often are swimming at the upper parts of the reef. Gili Mimpang is one of the best dive sites in Bali to see sharks, mainly white tip reef sharks. It is also a good spot to see the rare wobbegong shark, the very rare coral cat shark as well as the world famous Mola Mola (oceanic sunfish) during the right season (August to October) because there is a cleaning station for mola-mola. Large pelagic fishes like trevallies or tuna are often see there too. The visibility is here around 30 meters.

Dive Spots

Padang Bai
Depth 30 m · Visibility <5.0 m
We dive in Padang Bai from a jukung, a small fisherman boat in wood, on the beautiful Blue Lagoon (one of the bluest water of Bali), the Wall, Bias Tugal and the Jepun (little wreck).
About the marine life : hundreds of species, both large and small, can be observed in most of the spots: Oriental sweet lips, moray eels, many species of clownfish and anemone fish, napoleon wrasses, trevallies, jackfish, dogtooth tunas, king mackerels, crocodile fish, lionfish, octopus, pharaoh cuttlefish and green turtles, just to name a few ! You will enjoy a large variety of hard and soft corals, various types of gorgonians, healthy staghorn corals, huge coral boomies and table corals mainly at Bias Tugal, Tanjung Sari and Blue Lagoon. Other sites like the Secret Jetty or Secret Jepun are muck dive sites and have very little coral coverage, but tons of critters. Great for macro lovers and photographers!
