About this site

Lembongan Bay is a house reef off Lembongan Island in Bali, only a few minutes by boat from the dock. It is a good choice for beginners, night dives and photographers.

The bottom is sand scattered with coral bommies, and the dive reaches about 12 m (39 ft). Frogfish, moray eels, lobsters and schools of damselfish live among the bommies, along with many small reef species.

The bay sits in a cove that the main current flow does not reach, so it is not a drift dive, and conditions are usually calm.
