About Dave's Place

Dave's Place is a hard coral reef around the corner from Pink Beach on Lombok's southeast coast, 3 to 25 metres, with a small shallow cave and sea snakes.

Dave's Place lies just around the corner from Pink Beach on the southeast coast of Lombok, and links on to Macro Bay. A permanent mooring keeps snorkel boats from dropping anchor on its hard coral reef.

The reef runs from about 3 to 25 metres, and its hard coral makes it a favourite snorkel stop too. At high tide a small shallow cave can be explored by trained cave divers; several sea snakes live inside.
