  • Calm and relax dives
  • Nice coral reef with some macro
  • Only a hour car drive from Sanur

Padang Bai bay is located south-west of the much larger Amuk Bay which is the center of tourism on the east coast of Bali. Blue Lagoon is one of four main sites in the area. The Blue Lagoon is the most sheltered of the four sites and the one with the least exposure to the strong currents in the Lombok Strait.
The actual Blue Lagoon is really only the starting point for a dive in the area, because if you head down the peninsular towards Tanjung Sari, keeping the reef to your right, there is a great deal to see.

Other 3 points you may explored are "Tanjung jepun (temple)", this shallow (5 to 9 meters), well protected from currents dive site is full of beautifully overgrown coral bommies. Many different soft and hard coral species can be found here. Cuttlefish, sting Rays dig in the sand for food, Flatheads, Nudibranchs, Flounders and Scorpionfish are common encounters here. Next, is ” Bias Tugel”, this dive site is located right in front of the beautiful white sand beach. The entire bay consists of a flat bottom which is greatly covered with soft coral and bommies with hard coral strewn in between. Last is the Ferry Channel, Just outside the green beacon which marks the east side of the narrow channel where the ferry to Lombok runs in and out. A great variety of Nudibranch, yellow bargibanti pygmy seahorse are encounters at this point, Turtles often happen seen in the shallower parts at the end of the dive.

We came from Denver, Colorado to Bali for our honeymoon in April 2024. We hadn’t been on a dive for a few years so we wanted something on the easier side, but beautiful. Nicky at Bali Marine Divers made a great recommendation for the Padang bai boat dive! Asa was our dive master and he was amazing! He even took us to a kopi Luwak coffee producer after the dive, I highly recommend diving with Bali Marine Divers and Asa!
