About diving in Lombok

Beginners have Secret Bay, a sheltered, shallow bay with no current, plus Jimmy's Walls and Nusa Tiga. Experienced divers head for Coral Garden, Sivas Cave, the Bounty Wreck and Batu Kambar, and Game Changer goes deepest, from 20 to 40 m in strong current.

April to October, the dry season, brings the calmest seas and the best visibility, and July to September cools the water and brings the best chance of pelagic life. The Gili Islands are close enough to add to the same trip.
