Snorkeling Trip

Two ways to snorkel

Public or private — same 3 islands, different pace

Both trips visit the waters around Gili Trawangan, Gili Meno and Gili Air. The public trip is a shared boat at an affordable per-person price. The private trip is exclusively for your group, with a more flexible departure between 08:00 and 13:00.

Snorkeling spots are chosen for the day based on sea and weather conditions. Named locations on this page are a sample itinerary, not a guaranteed route.
