Q & A

About Nusa Lembongan and Nusa Penida

Lembongan is a diver, surfer, and yogi paradise only a 30-minute boat ride from southeast Bali and ideally located only 1 hour away from the Denpasar International Airport. It is part of the Klungkung Regency district which includes the three islands of Nusa Lembongan, Nusa Ceningan, and Nusa Penida.

Nusa Lembongan is around 8 square kilometers with around 5,000 inhabitants. In 2010 Nusa Penida was named an MPA (Marine Protected Area) by the 41 local villages and a strong community effort, one year later it was recognized by the Indonesian government. As a part of the district of Bali, it is rich in Hindu culture with many temples to visit and ceremonies to attend throughout the year. The people are among the friendliest in the world and are very welcoming to all visitors and proud to show off their beautiful island. It is off the beaten Bali track, but it is an adventure seekers dream with world-class diving, cliff jumping, hiking, surfing, and yoga. Bali is only a 30-minute boat ride away and filled with shopping, beaches, nightlife, and a number of adventure activities. 

 

Diving in the Penida Marine Park

Nusa Penida and Nusa Lembongan have quickly become a dive destination because of its year round sightings of manta rays and the seasonal appearance of the famous Mola Mola (Sunfish). Divers travel from around the world to dive the famous dive sites of Blue Corner, Crystal Bay, and Manta Point. You’re best chance to see the Mola Mola are during the months of July to September, while manta rays are spotted year round at their favorite cleaning and feeding stations along Nusa Penida’s cliffs.

The water temperatures can range from 16 degrees to 30 degrees with cold upwelling’s arriving in June bringing nutrient rich waters from the depths of the Lombok straight. The majority of our dives are drift dives, where we jump off the boat and drift with the current until our dive is complete and the boat crew picks us up wherever we surface. The fast current draws in the large sharks and rays as it is easier for them to breathe. The ocean surrounding the three islands are a MPA (Marine Protected Area) with many research projects and conservation initiative helping to protect the land and sea park.

    Our experience with Bali Diving Academy was absolutely wonderful. As a first time diver, I was a bit nervous about the whole adventure, but Karin and her amazing team made me feel very comfortable and definitely transmitted their passion for diving.

    Excellent PADI open water certification !
     
    I had an excellent experience completing my PADI open water certification at Bali Diving Academy. The team is very experienced and thorough in their training. In the open water dives I had the chance to see some amazing coral reefs, an octopus, manta rays and lots of colorful fish! I’d recommend completing an open water certification here!!!

    Safe, fun, 10/10!
     
    My brother and I completed our Advanced Open Water PADI dive course with Bali Dive Academy Pemuteran and loved it! Edi was our instructor doing a fantastic job explaining dive concepts and checking in on us during our dives. The equipment was very well maintained and I felt very safe using it. To top it all off the entire atmosphere of the dive shop was lovely, super relaxed and airy. They also have a great outdoor seating area next to a partner cafe that is absolutely scrumptious (they also offer vegan options!). Overall I highly recommend Bali Dive Academy Pemuteran!
