Die besten 5 Schnorchelplaetze auf Nusa Penida

Manta Point

Manta Point is definitely the most popular of the Nusa Penida snorkeling spots and of course because that is where people can swim with the majestic Manta Rays. The Manta Rays seen in Manta Point are the mature ones compared to the other snorkeling site Manta Bay where smaller Mantas can be seen. Wing span of the mature reef Manta Rays can be up to 4 meters. Manta Point is a small rocky bay with no beach located on the south-west corner of the Nusa Penida island. Coral reef is not great here so the highlight for snorkeling is of course spotting the Manta Rays. Often though snorkelers can also see baby Eagle Ray as well as Bamboo or Nurse sharks. Manta Point is generally an easy spot for snorkeling with the bottom found at 15 meters deep. Visibility is fair at approximately 10-15 meters and slightly might seem cloudy which is because of the plankton. As a general rule, when the visibility is really good it is hard to spot any Manta Rays because the Mantas they feed on the plankton and That's when snorkelers see them swimming with their mouths wide open.

Crystal Bay

Crystal Bay is the second most popular Nusa Penida snorkeling spot. It's the place where snorkelers compensate for what they Don't see in Manta Point: beautiful coral reefs, diverse tropical marine life and a stunning beach view on the surface. Crystal Bay earned It's name from the generally crystal clear waters here with visibility most often as far as 30 meters. In Crystal Bay snorkelers can swim with turtles, spot octopus and all the other tropical marine life people can imagine. When the sun is shining strong, the colours of the coral stand out, the small schools of fish provide the entertainment and the snorkeling experience is complete. Crystal Bay is an easy snorkeling Nusa Penida, swimming on the side of the bay just on top of the coral reef with a depth of approximately 5-8 meters.

SD Point

This spot is perhaps the highlight of snorkeling Nusa Penida, and mainly because the coral reef is simply stunning. The people visiting SD Point often say it is better than The Great Barrier Reef at this time and this is not overselling it. SD Point provides a continuous never-ending coral reef that is packed with schools of fish, pelagic life everywhere and turtles at every stop. Vibrant, rich, these are two of the keywords to describe SD Point. SD Point is located on the north coast of Nusa Penida and It's signature feature is that It's a drift dive meaning that generally there is a unidirectional current which most often gentle helps you swim above the coral reef. We call it a lazy dive.

PED

Dieser Schnorchelplatz auf Nusa Penida liegt neben dem SD Point an der Nordkueste der Insel. Da er direkt neben dem SD Point liegt, bedeutet dies auch, dass alles, was Schnorchler an dem einen lieben, auch am anderen finden werden. Das gleiche erstaunliche Korallenriff, das gleiche erstaunliche Unterwasserleben, die gleiche Art von Stroemung. Sowohl SD Point als auch PED werden typischerweise auf der 3-Plaetze-Tour zum Schnorcheln auf Nusa Penida besucht.

Mangrove

Arguably that Mangrove is not located at Nusa Penida, instead at Nusa Lembongan, this snorkeling spot is in the top 3 together with SD Point and Mangrove, and for the right reasons. The coral reef at Mangrove is out of this world and most likely you have never seen a coral reef like this. It is hard to explain in words but once you see it, you will want to come back guaranteed. Compared to the other snorkeling spots, Mangrove sometimes displays strong currents which makes it unsafe but when the water conditions are normal, it is the chosen site for all snorkelers visiting Nusa Penida island.
