The dive location is famous for the wreck of US transport ship named Liberty, about 120 meters long, now house for many kind of fishes, crustaceans, eels, corals, and many more ocean life. The wreck lies in shallow water and is considered appropriate for divers of all certification levels. The ship rests in 30 meters of water, is roughly 25 meters from shore and can be reached with a short swim from the beach. The highest point of the wreck tops out about 5 meters from the surface. The ship was torpedoed by the Japanese off the nearby Island of Lombok and the ship was towed to the beach at Tulamben for salvage operations. The 1963 eruption of Mt. Agung, which devastated much of the eastern side of Bali, drove the ship into the water just offshore, where it became encrusted with coral and a home to other sea life. The best conditions for diving here are during October and November, when the weather is generally calm and during the start of southeast monsoon, which typically extends from May to July. In addition to a wide variety of corals and invertebrates on the wreck itself, large fish frequent the wreck in some seasons, most popularly Mola mola and whale sharks, as well as Black-tip reef sharks. Professional divers have praised local residents for minimizing local fishing activity. This tour is perfect for you if like diving, active-travel, and adventures.

Today we take a step back in time on a temple exploration trip to Borobudur and the Prambanan temple complex. Our first stop takes us to the world’s largest Buddhist monument complex, Borobudur. This UNESCO listed site dates back to the 9th century and the striking structure pierces through a patchwork of bottle-green paddies and swaying palms.
After the decline of Buddhism and shift of power to East Java, the monument was abandoned soon after its completion and for centuries lay forgotten, buried under layers of volcanic ash. We will climb to certain level to soak up stunning vistas of the Menoreh Mountains (subject to weather conditions) before strolling through the complex.
We then continue to a nearby smattering of temples, including Pawon and Mendut, before driving to Prambanan village to visit the Prambanan Temple Complex. Also known as the complex of Lorojongrang, this Hindu temple dates back to the 9th century when Java was ruled by the Hindu Sanjayas of Old Mataram in the north. It consists of three main ornately decorated temples. (Please kindly note the queue to be able to step up on certain level to Brorobudur Temple will be available on your arrival. There is a local restriction to obey before entering the temple).

Some of Bali’s best diving and snorkelling is off the coast of Nusa Penida, an island that lies about 40 minutes to the east of the main island of Bali, this area is also where the legendary Manta Point is located. This area marks the start of the fabled “Coral Triangle” the worlds most biodiversity marine environment. However along with its prolific marine life and crystal waters,’ this area can be subject to strong currents, therefore skilled boatmen and guides are needed to find the best, and safest, spots to snorkel and dive. Participants should be experienced snorkellers and comfortable in the water. If you have any questions, please send an enquiry to our sales team. Travel to Nusa Penida departing from Sanur beach and using Licenced ocean-going speedboats, rather than the local “Jukung” – this allows us quick and convenient access to the best dive and snorkel spots this area has to offer. Not only Manta Point but also places like Crystal Bay, PED, SD Point, The Mangroves etc. Many people make the journey to Nusa Penida each year to seek out the migrating “Mola Mola” as they follow the colder currents that flow past the islands around Nusa Penida. The high season for sightings of Mola Mola or the Giant Ocean Sunfish is traditionally between July and November each year, but Manta Rays are present at Nusa Penida all year round and we interact with Manta Rays on approximately 95% of our dives, and this is a much sought after diving & snorkelling experience. But even outside the high season Mola Mola can still be sighted and the diving and snorkelling around Nusa Penida is truly spectacular and well worth the effort, Sun Fish are spotted sporadically all year round, so there’s always the chance of a sighting. This tour is perfect if you like: Family activities, nature, jungles, local life.
Today’s exceptional tour takes us to the paradise island of Nusa Penida, an idyllic location of abundant beauty, nature and culture, located 35 km from mainland Bali. Experience culture you never dreamed of and meet some of the friendliest people possible. Our 40 minutes journey on a speedboat provides sublime views of Mount Agung.
Upon arrival your guide will escort you to the first destination of the tour by car to Broken Hill. Enjoy the scenic view of the beach and afterwards we head to Klingking Hills to enjoy the spectacular view, ahead of lunch. We then depart to Snorkelling Point (Gamat & Wall) to view the amazing coral and exotic fish.
We return to Nusa Penida Island and enjoy some time on the natural white sands, before returning to the harboUr to catch the speedboat back to Bali and the road transfer back to your hotel in south Bali, or Ubud.
