Overview
Nestled on the eastern coast of Bali in Padang Bai, the Blue Lagoon is a breathtakingly beautiful bay renowned for its crystal-clear turquoise waters, vibrant coral reefs, and abundant marine life. This hidden gem is a must-visit destination for snorkeling and diving enthusiasts, offering a tranquil escape from the more crowded tourist spots in Bali.
Blue Lagoon is located about 1.5 to 2 hours from Denpasar and Ngurah Rai International Airport by car. It sits near the small port town of Padang Bai, which serves as the gateway to the Gili Islands and Lombok. Despite its proximity to a busy harbor, the Blue Lagoon remains a pristine snorkeling destination due to its protected cove and relatively shallow waters.
