About this site

Ceningan Wall lies along the Nusa Ceningan coastline, part of the small chain of islands off Bali's southeast coast that includes Nusa Lembongan and Nusa Penida, separated from mainland Bali by the Badung Strait. This channel is known for a strong tidal flow that funnels between the islands, and it draws divers and operators based out of Lembongan and the nearby Bali coast.
