Not far from the northwest coast of Bali, lies a small island called Menjangan Island. The island is located in a protected marine reserve in the West Bali National Park. Menjangan Island is surrounded by acres of beautiful coral reef gardens with a very diverse biological ecology, making it a favorite destination for snorkeling and diving.
The southern side of Menjangan is a popular spot for locals and tourists who want to dive for fish and coral reef exploration. In addition to the diversity of coral species, there are also various types of tropical fish to seabirds and shorebirds that frequent the island.
Bali Menjangan Island is so called because of the many deer that live on the island. Menjangan in Javanese means deer, which is where the name Menjangan Island came from. While on the island, if you are lucky you can see the deer up close, but you also have to be careful and not to disturb their habitat.
Fun Activities When Vacationing on Menjangan Island
To visit Menjangan Island, you will need a park permit and guide which can be arranged with most tour operators or hotels in the Pemuteran Beach area. The permit can also be obtained at the national park office in Labuhan Lalang. We recommend spending a day or two to explore some of the natural and cultural gems that West Bali has to offer.
Although Menjangan Island Bali is a small island, there are plenty of activities to do here. The first thing to do is snorkeling. If you want to snorkel there are 2 spots you can choose from. The first spot is located near the pier and close to the beach. When swimming on the edge of the beach you will see several types of fish. But when you swim to the middle, you can see colorful coral reefs and more types of fish.
Then the second spot is near the cliff and there is no need to anchor at the pier. This spot is also no less beautiful than the first spot. But for those of you who don’t want to snorkel, this second spot is suitable as an option to see the underwater world. From the top of the cliff you can see coral reefs and fish without having to get wet because the water is very clear. The next thing you can do here is diving. There are 3 spots that you can choose to do diving activities. The first is Anchor Wreck, a diving spot for professionals.
