The waters of the Bali Sea around the island of Nusa Menjangan offer plenty of variety for both beginners and experienced divers. Along the spectacular coral reefs and walls you will certainly come face to face with turtles, large groups of jacks, barracudas and sea bass, reef sharks, napoleon fish and much more. The walls run from 5 to 40 meters deep. Visibility is generally 10 to 30 meters, the temperature pleasant: around 28 degrees. Diving is possible all year round. Bali has a rainy period from approximately November to March. During these months there are heavy showers every day, often in the afternoon and evening.
