Island-Hopping Safari – Explore Lembongan, Penida & Candidasa on a 5-day circuit

Join us for a 5 day Mola Mola dive safari designed for experienced divers eager to explore Bali’s most iconic and current-rich sites.

With 11–12 dives across Nusa Penida, Lembongan, and Candidasa, you’ll have prime access to Mola Mola hotspots during the peak season.

Choose between two tailored formats: stay in Sanur for easy day trips, or go full circuit with our island-hopping route from Lembongan to Candidasa. Both options include professional guiding, comfortable accommodation, and seamless logistics—so you can focus on big fish, stunning reefs, and unforgettable dives.

Itinerary

Penida & Lembongan Diving

Nusa Penida and Nusa Lembongan offer some of Bali’s most thrilling drift dives and best chances to encounter the elusive Mola Mola during the July–October season. Expect strong currents, crystal-clear water, and dramatic underwater topography. Sites like Crystal Bay, Blue Corner, and Manta Point are teeming with life—from graceful manta rays and schooling jacks to bumphead parrotfish, turtles, and reef sharks. These dives are best suited for experienced divers comfortable with unpredictable currents and depth changes. When conditions align, few places in the world can match Penida for pelagic encounters.


Candidasa Diving

Located on Bali’s east coast, Candidasa is a gateway to some of the island’s wildest underwater terrain. The nearby Gili Mimpang, Tepekong, and Biaha are known for their rugged landscapes, steep walls, caves, and powerful currents. This area is home to white-tip and black-tip reef sharks, large pelagics, and dense schools of reef fish. Macro enthusiasts can also find surprises hidden in the volcanic sand. Due to its advanced conditions—often with surge, downcurrents, and unpredictable visibility—Candidasa diving is best for confident divers looking for adventure and serious marine action.
