★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 2,033 reviews · from $78Our pick

This 8-hour Indo Compass Bali outing combines four snorkel stops, manta rays, turtles, coral gardens, Kelingking Beach, lunch, and a fast boat from Sanur. Guides such as Fernando, Coral, Prima, Ariel, and Vincent are praised for close safety support and free GoPro photos. Expect a busy day, choppy water, and a small group of up to 13 people.

“We did this tour and had an absolute blast. The experience was phenomenal. We got to see manta rays, turtles and more. Our guides Fernando and Coral took fantastic care of us. I had never snorkled before and I had no problems. I did get a little sea sick as I wasn't used to the water. That was no problem for them, they came over and took care of us immediately and got us up and running again. If you get Fernando and Coral as your guides, you are in for an experience you will remember for your lifetime.”

2.Bali Nusa Penida West Private All-Inclusive Tour

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 1,277 reviews · from $80

Leave your Bali hotel around 6:30 am, cross by fast boat from Sanur, and tour Nusa Penida with a private driver. You’ll visit Kelingking Beach, Broken Beach, Angel’s Billabong, and Crystal Bay, with lunch included. Guides such as Kris, Arza, Heri, and Aditya have earned praise for thoughtful help and excellent photos, but road conditions, boat crowds, and limited sightseeing commentary matter.

“Adhi and Eno were superb driver-guides and made our trip very memorable and enjoyable. They went out of their way to ensure our comfort throughout the day. Eno took special care to take our pictures at all the scenic viewpoints. In spite of the bad roads, his driving was excellent and needs special mention. The boat trip to Nusa Penida was in a public fast ferry where passengers were crammed together tightly and was the least enjoyable part of the whole trip - however this was not under the control of the tour company. Overall, highly recommended trip!”
