Trip : Amed and Nusa Lembongan, Bali 2015 (2)


(have you read the first part)

Its our third day on the trip, after spending 2 days in Amed for Lv.1 SSI Freedive course we decide to take a rest around Denpasar, and then going to Padang padang beach. 

We wakeup late and enjoy our night sleep then first we go to find a gift to bring back to Jakarta. There is several place to go and bought gift, The first one is Sukawati Art Market (this place is known for many years as the place to buy gift from Bali) but we didn’t go there because its not on the same direction to Padang padang, where we heading.

We choose to go find a gift shop around Denpasar which is very easy to find, Krisna or Erlangga is the biggest and famous in Denpasar.

After getting all gift we need, we go straight to Padang padang beach. The beach located between cliffs, and great place to swim and having some sunburn. 




From there, we move on to another beach nearby named Suluban beach. Almost the same with Padang padang beach, located between cliffs, but Suluban isn’t swimmable, but the best for chatting, have a drink and enjoying sunset until the night is late and time to go back home to sleep and energizing for our next trip.

Nusa Lembongan is a small island located on the southeast side of Bali island. Nusa lembongan is one of three neighbouring island, the other island is Nusa Penida and the smallest is Nusa Ceningan. To reach Nusa Lembongan from Bali island is by boat, although you can use helicopter but of course that is expensive.



There is several way to reach Nusa Lembongan by boat, but mostly available from Sanur, such as Bali Fast Boat, Mushroom Lembongan Paradise, The Marlin Cruise, Blue Beach Boat, Sea Horse Lembongan, etc.

At that time, we almost late and had to run to the boat, it almost ruined our day with bad mood but when we arrive at Nusa Lembongan, we all feel happy again. We met our motorbike owner (we rent motorbike to go around the island) and head to Java CafĂ©, our meeting point to snorkel around the island. The boat take us to 3 snorkling spot, the first one is “Gamat Beach”, then “The Wall” and the last one is “Mangrove”.








Gamat, The Wall and Mangrove, all is a superb place to snorkeling and reef freedive. But our favorite is The Wall, its located along rocky cliff with good depth (from 4 meter near the cliff and decending to more then 10 meter). The best part of it is there the  sea current moving from one point of the wall to another point, up to 1 km long; so all we have to do is just dive and float around, super fun




Anyway I think that’s all I want to share here, if I go with detail it will need another part. The point is its super fun, relaxing with a little sunburn. Come join us on our next trip.
