| As a part of Bali
Barat National Park, Menjangan Island is well known for
its magnificent underwater world, beautiful coral reefs
found nearby and the best site for fishing.. Another attraction
of the island is protected deer. Menjangan, an inhibited
island about 10 km offshore, offers deep coral reef walls
and is one of Bali's best diving sites.
There are a few dive sites to choose from at Menjangan
with good conditions and excellent visibility. It's also
an interesting site for snorkeling. Menjangan also has
a wreck , known as the 'Anker' because of its heavily
encrusted anchor at the top of the reef. Fixed moorings
have been built to prevent damag, and the island is reached
by a 30 minutes boat ride from Labuan Lalang.
Pemuteran is an ideal place to
plan excursions to West Bali National Park, compromising
the nature reserve of Menjangan Island and the uplands
in the west. Menjangan has the most beautiful coral reefs
in Bali. Along with the nearby Labuan Lalang, this is
a wonderful place for diving and snorkeling.
