DEEP BLUE (BLUE MOON)
Shore dive possible when the tide is high. If low tide, the best and easiest way would be by boat. the drift could start to be strong along the way. Amazing drift for those who like sliding in the water and possibly looking around for 2 or 3 reef sharks. Its a good mix between Bunutan and Golden rock dive sites.

JAPANESE SHIPWRECK
The history of the shipwreck is uncertain as nobody could really know for sure what happened. The Lombok strait, Bali & Java sea were strategic points for battles during the World War II when Japanese were going through Indonesia (from 1942 to 1945). The steel freighter (20meters) seems like it has been used as a patrol ship. Full crashed at 8 meters deep. The engine lies at 30 meters down. A lot of stories around.. was it “Japanese” or “Javanese”… The dive site is stunning due to the coral reef slope style which is untouched. An amazing dive with some currents expected.
