Whale Sharks Tour – Manta Snorkeling – Gili Trawangan 6 Days 5 Nights
The Whale Sharks Tour – Manta Snorkeling – Gili Trawangan 6 Days 5 Nights journey offers the perfect mix of adventure, beaches, and marine life. Your trip begins in Bali, and each day brings a new experience with beautiful islands, calm waters, and unforgettable wildlife encounters.
Your adventure starts with a scenic transfer from Bali to Nusa Penida. The first day is a full land tour, and you visit the most iconic viewpoints on the island. Kelingking Beach, Broken Beach, and Angel’s Billabong offer dramatic scenery because the cliffs, bays, and lagoon-like formations create stunning landscapes. The tour continues with a stop at Crystal Bay for a relaxing time before heading to your hotel. The day ends with a peaceful evening surrounded by the beauty of Penida’s coastline.
The next morning begins with a Manta Point snorkeling tour, and this is one of the highlights. Manta rays glide through the water with slow, graceful movements, and the encounter feels magical. You also visit two or three additional snorkeling spots, so you can enjoy coral gardens, tropical fish, and bright underwater colors. After the tour, your boat continues to Gili Trawangan, known for soft white sand, turquoise water, and a relaxed island atmosphere.
You spend two days in Gili Trawangan, and both days are designed for leisure. You can snorkel from the beach, relax under the sun, enjoy cafés by the ocean, or cycle around the island. The water is clear, and turtles often appear close to shore. Because of the island’s laid-back vibe, these days feel slow, peaceful, and refreshing.
Your journey continues with a transfer to Sumbawa for three days of exploring. The highlight of this part is the whale shark snorkeling tour in Saleh Bay. You depart early because mornings offer the best chance to meet these gentle giants. Swimming beside whale sharks is a rare experience, and their calm nature makes the encounter safe and memorable. You also explore beaches, small villages, and natural viewpoints during your time in Sumbawa.
The trip ends with a return to Bali, bringing home beautiful island memories. The Whale Sharks Tour – Manta Snorkeling – Gili Trawangan 6 Days 5 Nights is perfect for travelers who want marine wildlife, island scenery, and smooth travel in one complete package.
