This snorkelling trip takes you to three different spots around the Gili islands: an underwater statue, the Coral Garden in Gili Meno, and the Mainpoint snorkelling area. At the underwater statue you will see a structure formed by coral that has become a home for fish and other marine life, allowing the local ecosystem to grow and thrive. As you move on to the Coral Garden in Gili Meno, you will find dense, colourful coral formations and, if you focus closely, you may spot clownfish among the branches.
The final snorkelling stop is the Mainpoint, where you will swim with sea turtles; turtles here are easy to find and are described as friendly, so you will have the chance to swim and play with them in the water. After your time in the ocean, you will visit an island — either Gili Meno or Gili Air — where you can enjoy sightseeing or relax with lunch or a drink at a restaurant with ocean views. The experience combines marine exploration with a peaceful island visit.
