The Glenn Nusa wreck in Gili Trawangan has now been sunk for around 2 months. This means that we are starting to see a build up of coral and an increase in fish life around this artificial reef, making a promising new dive site.

For those who are interested in doing a couple of dives on this wreck and even getting the chance to go inside through the inner cabin – ask us for info on the wreck diver specialty course!

This week, after much planning between the Gili Island Dive Association (GIDA) and the Gili Eco Trust, a new wreck was sunk in Gili Trawangan. The Glenn Nusa is the first shipwreck of its kind to be sunk here and sits in around 28m of water, with the top at around 22m deep.

Soon this will be filled with coral and teeming with fishlife as it becomes an artificial reef in itself.

Here is a photo of the ship just before it was sunk! Be one of the first to explore this new dive site!

Want to try a different kind of diving?
Located in one of the bays next to Lombok, Seahorse Bay (Kecinan) offers a completely different experience from the typical Gili island experience.  Muck diving is not so much about beautiful corals and big fish as it is about seeing some of the rarer weird and wonderful things the ocean has to offer!

Regular sightings of frogfish, ghostpipefish, bobtail squids, stonefish, blue-ring and mimic octopus – and of course seahorses! – make this dive site a great option for those more experienced divers looking to see something new!
On top of this there are also 2 new fishing boats that have been sunk to provide some wreck diving. This dive site is open for request so just let us know!
