Swimming and Snorkeling at our home reef
Snorkeling in 29 degrees warm water right in front of your doorstep is pure delight! If you are lucky enough, you can admire rare tropical fish in beautiful coral gardens passing by.
Our small home reef at about 200 m distance from the Bali Mandala Resort is under protection of “Reef Check”, an international organization that awarded the stunning biodiversity of our underwater world.
Moored buoys have been put down and a small, local diving station offers diving trips for seasoned divers starting from the resort.
The famous diving villages Tulamben and Amed are at a close distance from our resort. Another diving resort is situated about 10 km to the West and offers day diving trips and individual diving lessons.
