Mangrove Point

Mangrove Point sits off the northwest coast of Nusa Lembongan, an island across the Badung Strait from mainland Bali, near the mangrove forest for which it is named. Dive sites along this shore are typically reached by small boat from Lembongan's harbor villages, with the Ceningan Strait and Nusa Penida channel close by. The site sits over a reef bottom with a maximum depth of around 12 metres and is rated a beginner dive. Divers have also reported the occasional mola mola, or ocean sunfish, passing through here.
