Dive-site story
Stretching along the coast of Gili Meno, this gently shelving reef transitions from shallow hard coral patches down into a sandy seabed dotted with coral bommies. Divers drifting along the incline regularly encounter sea turtles resting on coral plates or feeding along the substrate. The sandy patches between coral structures provide shelter for bottom-dwellers like rays and garden eels.
Reliable encounters with both green and hawksbill sea turtles feeding in shallow reef zones
Coral bommies hosting diverse macro life including nudibranchs and juvenile reef fish
Gentle drifting conditions suitable for leisurely marine life observation
