Nusa Penida and Nusa Lembongan’s diving is dominated by the strong currents that sweep past these exposed islands. The huge amount of water that flows through the Lombok Strait creates cold, nutrient-rich upwellings that support the area’s prolific marine life. Guests can choose to stay on either Nusa Penida, Nusa Ceningan or Nusa Lembongan, with dive centres offering trips to all of the area’s top dive sites.
Nusa Lembongan scuba diving
Some of the best scuba diving in Nusa Lembongan is found along the channel that runs between Lembongan and Penida. Dive sites such as Blue Corner, Mangrove, Toyapakeh, Gamat Bay and Crystal Bay offer incredible drift diving and are great dive spots for encounters with bigger fish. Mola mola, big marble rays, reef sharks, eagle rays, tuna, Spanish mackerel can all be spotted, particularly in the deeper areas. There are also beautiful schools of redtooth triggers, surgeonfish, snappers, fusiliers and trevally.Â
Nusa Penida scuba diving
Along the southwest coast of Nusa Penida, you'll find several manta dives, including the famous Manta Point dive sites. Here, the graceful rays congregate to feed and visit cleaning stations. Nusa Penida’s manta dives are enjoyable year-round, but the diving is generally better during the summer months.
Diving in Nusa Penida, you will witness beautiful reefs filled with hard and soft corals running along its sheltered north coast. Sites such as SD, Pura Ped, Pura Mas Gading and Buyuk feature schools of redtooth triggers, bannerfish and pyramidfish, as well as snappers, grouper, and sweetlips. Leaf scorpionfish and giant frogfish can be spotted with a keen eye – and this being Penida – turtles, sharks, rays and Mola mola can also be seen!
Some of the scuba diving around Nusa Penida and Nusa Lembongan can be challenging to the extreme. Currents can be very strong and unpredictable, and the fantastic visibility may lure divers down in search of deep water animals. Always be aware of your depth, time and air.
