Level:All Divers & Resort Course & Snorkelers
Menjangan Pos 1
You can either start from the jetty and swim to the east or from a traditional boat that drops you right in the channel between the main island and Menjangan. This dive site is big, covering more than 60.000 m2 underwater lives, partial drop off, slope and flat area. Generally visibility is around 20m or better. You can expect to be accompanied by some friendly Bat Fish through out your dive. Sometimes there is current in the channel, and that is the time when you have a chance to see some big pelagic, such as Tuna, Sharks.
Our instructor has spotted a Bull Shark ..no kidding, some Dolphins (at the surface), and Whale Sharks. Generally the diving is relaxing and there are many things to see. The area near the Jetty is also excellent for training.
Menjangan Pos 2
You can swim either to the west or to the east. If you swim to the west, you will find underwater structures with some small caverns and drop off. The structure serves as an excellent natural framing for underwater photography and videography, with some silhouettes from the sun penetrating the openings. You can also "play" hide and seek when exploring the caverns. Expect to see some pelagic and if you lucky, great Barracuda. To the east, there are more fishes to see, drop off, big gorgonians and sometimes current. At some shallow reefs, you can find schools of jack fish. Deeper than 40m, is the place to see big marine life.
