Around the rather remote bay of Belongas you'll find the dive sites "The Magnet" and "The Cathedral", where the seasonable sighting of schooling barracudas, tunas, and other pelagic life is fairly regular. Apart from the mobula ray season in September, hammerheads like to school around the Magnet in June until early November. As dive conditions can at times be quite challenging, we recommend diving "The Magnet" only to the more experienced diver! Read more...

Gili Renggit 4 unique and fascinating dive
sites!
The east side of Gili Renggit, "Batu Putih", is
an excellent site to explore for macro life. Surrounded by shrimps,
ghost pipefish and glassfish, you dive along a slope lined with
soft coral and feather stars. Diving "The Harbour"
you can also find Blue spotted rays, cuttlefish, moray eels and a
lot more!
The west side of Gili Renggit is also quite spectacular!
"Pantai Batu" shows an abundance of hard coral and
a fascinating staghorn coral garden in the shallows at the end of
the dive. "Wave Corner" offers rare species for
the macro fan! The corals are populated with nudibranches, ghost
pipefish and colorful shrimps. Come and see if you can find the
camouflaged frogfish, leaffish, and other amazing critters!
Secret Garden
A very impressive soft coral slope that steeps down to about 26m.
The abundance of coral as well as the multitude of macro life is
absolutely breathtaking! You dive along a slope lined with soft
coral as well as interesting niches and overhangs to end the dive
at a shallow plateau with huge barrel sponges and impressive hard
coral formations. Here you should be on the lookout for blue
spotted stingrays, cuttlefish, moray eels, and octopus!
Sunken Island
Another favorite dive site is located east of Gili Renggit. During
the afternoons one can find a unique light an color spectrum on
these dives to around 16m. The colorful reef is populated with
trumpet fish, anemone fish, groupers, and every now and then by
whitetip reefsharks and turtles.
Stairs to Medang
Terracing down from 14m to about 35m you will experience a
fascinating underwater landscape. Here you can experience the
Indopacific at its best. We've seen mantas, different species of
sharks and plenty of lively reef fish in all colors and sizes. On
top of the plateau it's not uncommon to run into lobsters and
turtles.
Lighthouse
After reaching around 16 meters on the slowly descending plateau
we find landslide similar terrain. As we dive along this breakage,
we are accompanied by emperor fish, big groupers and surgeon fish.
The dive leads into a deeply gorging valley lined by heavy, massive
coral formations. Once in the valley we find white tip reef sharks,
schooling mackerel, schooling sweet lips, and an abundance of
lively fish.
