Southeast Lombok dive sites

Blue Marlin’s Kuta base provides access to dive sites around the southeast coast of Lombok. The operator currently highlights sites around the Tanjung Ringgit and Alas Strait areas, with underwater environments including coral gardens, walls, caves, swim-throughs, slopes and macro sites.

The current dive-site information describes a range of marine environments, from shallow and sheltered locations suitable for beginners to sites with stronger currents and deeper drop-offs for more experienced divers. Depending on the location and conditions, divers may encounter reef sharks, turtles, tuna, rays, groupers, seahorses, nudibranchs and other marine life.

Blue Marlin confirms trips according to weather and sea conditions, with specific dive locations selected based on conditions and diver experience.

Snorkeling and day trips

Non-divers can explore Lombok’s underwater environment through guided snorkeling trips. The centre offers snorkeling alongside its scuba programmes, allowing visitors to experience coral reefs and marine life without taking a diving course.

Blue Marlin also operates day trips to Southeast Lombok dive sites. The current Kuta day trip starts in the morning and returns to Kuta in the afternoon, with transport to the harbour, boat travel, guided dives and meals included in the listed package.
