Also, Menjangan on the northwestern one is a good choice because there is little to no currents. Advanced divers usually go around Nusa Penida and Nusa Lembongan or Candidasa where they can do drift dives.

FAQ

When is the best time of the year to do this tour?

Our favorite time for travel in Indonesia is between April to October, although Indonesia is a great year-round destination, offering memorable experiences for all kinds of adventures. July to August are the peak summer months.

If you must travel in ‘high season’ but want to avoid the crowd, worry not, there are several unbeaten tracks in Indonesia ready to be explored.
