Transport, kit, and refreshments are sorted; lunch isn't included.

What to expect

You'll be picked up and driven to Padangbai's eastern coast, where calm conditions typically prevail. The Blue Lagoon offers shallow, protected snorkelling with excellent sightlines to living coral and resident fish. Tanjung Jepun, more exposed, has greater depth and diverse species. Both sites operate on a low-impact principle—the operator actively supports coral conservation and reef cleanup initiatives. Expect 2–3 hours water time split between sites, with a coffee pause onshore. Bias Tugel wraps up the experience before drop-off.

Good to know

Not suitable if you have spinal issues, are pregnant, or have cardiovascular concerns. Bring sunscreen and a rash guard; reef shoes are useful. Water conditions are clearest during dry season (April–October). Book lunch separately if needed. Gratuities are customary but not mandatory.
