Pemuteran Trips & Tours

Superlative snorkelling, diving, and exquisite hotels, far, far away from the tourist track.

Part of the greater West Bali National Park, Menjangan is a white-sand idyll just off the northern coast of the island, named after the local deer (menjangan) who swim across the mellow waters from the Prapat Agung Peninsula every spring. The island is renowned for its dramatic diving and snorkelling opportunities and the waters are clear, calm, and filled with exotic coral gardens, their fringes filled with fish not found anywhere else in the world. There are no residents on the island itself – aside from 16 Hindu monks that live in three temples – and most visitors stay in Pemuteran, the gateway to the island on the mainland. It’s a quiet bay of black sand beaches backed by towering escarpments and craggy mountains and incredibly close to Java, which can be seen in some of the unique architecture.

Things to do

What to do in Pemuteran

Snorkel or dive in crystal-clear waters at the famed Pemuteran Coral Restoration Project, one of the world’s largest coral reef rehabilitation sites, or head out to Menjangan Island for its vibrant marine life. On land, the national park offers jungle treks, birdwatching, and the chance to spot the endangered Bali Starling. For a more serene experience, kayak through mangroves or relax on Pemuteran’s black sand beaches, where the sunsets are nothing short of magical.

Off the beaten track

Explore the anchor wreck, an old wooden ship wreck though to have sunk during WWII. With a cargo of ceramics and glass bottles, it’s fascinating to dive to – and you may even spot a turtle or two.
