Diving Padang Bai
Padang Bai, a small coastal town in eastern Bali, is just one hour from Sanur. Here is also where you take ferries for the Gili Islands and Lombok. Our transport brings you to our affiliated restaurant, where you find showers and toilets. Just a few steps from the restaurant and you’re on the beach where a local boat (Jukung) brings you to the close dive sites. Here the conditions are a suitable choice for a family trip, snorkelers and divers of all level. There are 3 main dive sites here, where you can find healthy corals, tiny little fishes to make cool pictures and is not uncommon to meet sharks and turtles.
Blue Lagoon
As the name suggests it is located in a bay and the water here is very clear. It starts with a shallow bottom composed by sand and huge coral rocks where the marine life is very active. It continues by sloping down and at the curvature of the bay we have a vertical coral wall. Here the encounter with marine life is huge: octopus, morey eel, scorpion leaf fish, shrimp, cuttlefish and frog fish.
Pura Jepun
It is located 5 minutes after the bay of Blue Lagoon and as you arrive you’ll see plenty of corals and fish right under the boat. The visible bottom then slopes down showing stone fish, box fish and nudibranches. Around 18m you can also see a wreck from a fishing boat in intact state and just by looking closer you can see a lot of marine activity going on there. Right after you find also some artificial reefs and sculptures where a lot of diverse fish find they’re home.
Bias Tugal
Bias Tugal is in front of its homonym beach south of Blue Lagoon and Jepun. The shallow part is covered by soft and hard coral that goes down up to 30m. You don’t have to go that deep to encounter marine life, at already 10-15m you can spot many nudibranches, shoals of fish and by looking carefully pygmy seahorse. Along the site you can follow up the turtles that swim around in search for food.
