About this tour
A three-hour snorkelling trip from Lembongan that takes you to three distinct underwater zones.

What to expect
You'll board a boat at Jungut Batu early morning and motor out to open water. Each site offers different marine life and reef conditions. Manta Bay requires patience—rays aren't guaranteed, so if they don't show, the captain pivots to Manta Point where sightings are more likely. Crystal Bay delivers wall-to-wall visibility where you can spot fish at depth. Mangrove Point is shallower and calmer, ideal for examining coral structures up close. Expect 15–20 minutes at each site with breaks to return to the boat. The guide will brief you on currents and where to look before each descent.
Good to know
Bring seasickness medication if prone. The boat ride can be bumpy in rough swells. Sunscreen (reef-safe) and a rash guard help prevent sun damage. Don't eat a heavy breakfast beforehand. The trip starts early; confirm pickup details with your operator.
