About Game Changer

Game Changer is a wall dive on the remote southeast coast of Lombok. A massive wall drops below 120 metres, with a large swim through cave and steep slopes that turn into deeper ridges.

The wall is covered in hard and soft corals, sponges and large sea fans, with overhangs, pinnacles and drop offs along the route. The swim throughs and caves are good for exploring and for photos.

The main attractions are between 20 and 40 metres; technical divers go much deeper. Reef sharks, Napoleon wrasse, bumphead parrotfish, mobula rays, barracuda, tuna and turtles are among the sightings.

Visibility is usually excellent, but the exposed location means conditions can change quickly. Dive it with a local shop that checks the sea before heading out.
