Bali Blue Lagoon Snorkeling and Coral Fishing — All-Inclusive Boat Adventure
Combine two classic East Bali marine experiences in one half-day: snorkeling colorful reefs at Blue Lagoon and Tanjung Jepun, then heading offshore for hands-on coral fishing. All gear, lunch and transport are provided—ideal for travelers who want reef time and a chance to reel in snapper.
The Experience
Before You Go
Use reef-safe sunscreen
Apply biodegradable sunscreen before boarding to protect coral and avoid reapplying in the water.
Bring a waterproof camera or case
Visibility can be excellent—capture reef life and the view of Mount Agung from the boat.
Wear water shoes
Beach entries can be rocky; shoes protect feet and help with grip on slippery surfaces.
Motion-sickness prep
If you’re prone to seasickness, take medication before departure and sit mid-boat where movement is gentler.
