We had a couple of hours at the shipwreck snorkeling. It is accessible from the beach and about 20 metres out. There is a buoy marking the spot of the wreck. Not much is left of it after 78 years but you can still make out the bow and there is heaps of fish and coral. We saw beginner SCUBA divers as it is not a deep wreck. The water was clear in the morning and there were quite a few people so try to get there early. There is plenty of tables at a Warung to leave your belongings at and showers and toilets. There is a tip box for using these facilities but we opted instead to have a tea and coffee from the Warung after our snorkel and have a relax under beautiful shady trees. There is a big car park but there is construction going on in the car park so not sure what is happening there. …

So far I had a limited possibilities to snorkel to any wreck except of scuba diving. At this point you have this excellent possibility just 3 meters below the surface. Do not miss it! And one more tip: In the body of the wreck there is always a huge flock of small fishes :-)

I went snorkelling which was arranged by my accomodation via a local boat. Maybe a bad time of the year to go snorkelling here as there were a few waves. To be honest I was disappointed, not much coral and there are some fish. A plus was there wasn’t much rubbish in the water. I recently went to Menjangan Island which was really good.…

Located very close to the shore, this its a fantastic dive site for divers of any ability. The site has amazing history. There are plenty of places nearby to hire gear if you need to. You do need to pay a small fee for parking but it is well worth it.

I was there 6 years ago, there was already some plastic in the water but now it's just heart breaking. Some morning , depending on the current, the beaches and water are full of plastic. You are literally swimming in the middle of all sort of plastic floating around you and all the way on the shore. 70 to 80 %of the coral is dead, you still see some fish but nothing compare to what it should be. I saw 2 fish with plastic pieces around the mounth, some herrings (I believe) that are swimming open mounth to get small fish are eating more plastic than fish. Such a shame for this incredible place where coral used to be all over just 5 meters from the beach. You have to clean the beach when you arrive if you want your children to play around while locals ( too busy on the mobile phone) are watching you packing all sort of plastic. I won't be back there, I love this part of Bali but if locals are not urgently acting, in 20 or 30 years ( maybe before), I can definitely tell you that there would be no more coral and therefore fish in those water. Please act instead of spending time on your phone. …
