Toya pakeh, Crystal Bay & Mangrove point
| Required Level | All levels |
| Depth | 5-40 meters |
| Location | North-west coast Nusa Penida |
| Travel to Dive site | 15 – 20 minutes |
The Penida reef in this area is so diverse. You have to dive into these dive sites more than once during your stay with us.
The Crystal Bay dive site is considered the best place to spot some Mola Mola. Unfortunately, this area has very strong and tricky currents that may make it impossible for one to dive at certain times.

| Required Level | All levels |
| Depth | 5-40 meters |
| Location | North coast Nusa Penida |
| Travel to Dive site | 15 – 20 minutes |
The Penida reef in this area is so diverse. You have to dive into these dive sites more than once during your stay with us. The reef has many soft and hard corals, which attract an enormous amount of turtles! Yes, the endangered Green and Hawksbill turtle is here! And not just one! All different kinds of macro life will blow your mind. When the currents pick up the dive site, SD is ideal for a drift dive. If you look away from the reef into the blue, you might see some white-tip sharks or tuna hunting. If you are fortunate, a baby whale shark will swim by.
Ped is fascinating the second you go down. Many hidden treasures underwater. Sental is the calmest of all. PMG is the coolest one.
And did you ever hear of PmG? A very special and mysterious dive site on the north coast of Nusa Penida. Hidden between two more known dive sites Buyuk and Sental. Special because there is a little temple on the top of the surface. Or actually same like the Tanah Lot in Bali, whenever it is low tide you see the temple been build on a rock. So PmG is a kind of a mini Tanah Lot based at Nusa Penida dive site.
Mysterious, because the famous Mola Mola seems to visit it a lot! Even in low season! So if we can go down there at the perfect time and temperature, the Mola will come to say hi. This dive site is also one of the sites we dive when you choose to do your PADI Deep Specialty course. Exciting!

Batuh Abah, Karang Sari, Sampalan
| Required Level | Experienced |

The northeast side of Nusa Penida is even more beautiful than all the other dive sites around Nusa Lembongan and Nusa Penida. The reason is that not many dive centers go here.
Sampalan and Karang Sari are famous for the thresher sharks, stunning canyons, and deeper walls. The Mola? Yes, they are everywhere.
