Usually mild, but changes with the tide
Diving is available year-round when wind, swell and current permit. May–October often brings clearer dry-season water; wet-season visibility is more variable. Wildlife encounters are never guaranteed.
Typical conditions can vary on the day of your dive. Confirm current conditions with the dive team before entering the water.
Boat dive from one of the three Gili islands
Keep fins clear of the sandy bottom and artificial reef structures, and follow the guide’s route because local site boundaries can overlap.
Use a macro lens, focus light and patient search pattern. Keep fins elevated over sand or rubble, approach subjects slowly and never touch, reposition or crowd marine life. Night photographers should agree light and buddy signals before entry.
