Menjangan Island’s location protects it from the deep upwellings and currents that sweep much of eastern Bali. Combined with the very low rainfall in the area, the result is great visibility and relaxed diving. These sheltered conditions are ideal for coral growth and Menjangan Island has become well-known for its vibrant coral gardens in the shallows. Such easy conditions around Menjangan and at Pemuteran itself are also ideal for beginners. In fact, this area is probably one of the best in Bali for learning to scuba dive or completing further training.
Menjangan Island diving
Most of Menjangan Island’s dive sites offer both shallow, coral-covered reef flats and steeper walls riddled with caves and overhangs. Here you can find fabulous whip corals, large sponges, and huge sea fans as you go deeper. Turtles, reef sharks, and schools of fusiliers are all common, as well as tuna, trevallies, and barracuda. Big marbled stingrays are sometimes seen in the deeper sections and manta or devil rays will occasionally pass by. There are even the heavily broken-up remains of a wreck!
Pemuteran dive sites
The diving around Pemuteran itself focuses on several offshore reefs known as Taka, straight out from the village. Whilst the visibility is not as good as at Menjangan, these dive sites are great for a gentle afternoon dive hunting for macro. The famous Biorock artificial reefs are also worth exploring, particularly in the early morning. Divers can simply walk off the beach and explore a garden of incredible underwater structures, all covered with soft and hard corals and bustling with small reef fish.
