Plan your diving together with our experienced, flexible team and explore 3 unique South Lombok locations. South Lombok is a highlight for every scuba diver and offers many dive sites for all levels of experience!

Until recently, south west Lombok was known mostly to surfers, who enjoy the fantastic reef breaks around the southern coastline. 5 years ago we’ve discovered it for spectacular diving opportunities, and for the moment South Lombok is still an insider tip amongst the diving community. Apart from the diving, as you will not find many tourists on the south coast beaches it’s also still one of the most beautiful places for enjoying a relaxed tropical vacation with breathtaking sunset views and relaxing walks on the beach.

South Lombok is uncommon amongst the other dive locations around Lombok. Here one still finds diving as a distinct experience and exclusive dive sites with the chance to explore undiscovered waters. These new dive sites offer even the well-traveled and experienced diver a surprising and breathtaking experience, and due to the great variety of dive sites, there is exciting diving for all levels of training. A unique underwater experience and a highlight for photographers!

Scuba Diving in South Lombok…

Sekotong, southwest coast, is affected by it’s position jutting into the Lombok Strait. Conditions can be variable depending on the prevailing currents and how close to the channel you get. As the water is fairly shallow, visibility is never crystal clear but this doesn’t affect the caliber of the dive sites. There are bright soft corals and colorful crinoids, which harbor an amazing variety of rare marine life, including Ghost Pipe Fish, Leaf Fish, Pygmy seahorses and much more. Sekotong offers many interesting dive sites for the experienced as well as for the beginning diver.

Our PADI 5 star resort is located in Kuta, Lombok, and here we offer our array of PADI scuba courses, from beginner to professional, as well as organize interesting dive trips other dive location around Lombok, e.g: Sekotong, Belongas Bay, and Gili Trawangan.

The reefs around Kuta are very intact, and apart from the many colorful reef fish, there is an abundance of macro life, crabs and lobsters to be found. From July until November the conditions around Kuta are occasionally subject to rougher seas, and from December until May one can find perfect conditions for scuba fun at pristine reefs, well suited for divers of all levels.

Scuba diving in Belongas Bay ranges from exciting to challenging “adrenalin dives” at  the dive sites “The Magnet“ and “The Cathedral“. The seasonable sighting of schooling barracudas, tunas, and other pelagic life is fairly regular, and apart from the mobula- and eagle ray season during September, hammerheads have the tendency to sometimes school around the Magnet end June until early November. As currents and dive conditions in south east Lombok can at times be quite challenging, we recommend diving “The Magnet” only to the more experienced diver!
