I do not recommend this excursion. You have to transfer for a long time, wait, and get herded around like cattle. The guide on the boat was very nice. Because it is so touristy, the snorkeling bays are packed, there are also many ships there that let their exhaust fumes out completely, and with so many ships and the strong waves, I was afraid of getting under a ship. What you see underwater is beautiful, but relaxed snorkeling is something else! After that, we went on extremely bumpy roads (very poor condition) to the viewpoint, which is beautiful, but veeeery overcrowded. So never again! It should be noted that all the guides were very friendly.

Hi Mrs Claudia Gschwind
Thank you for taking the time to provide a review of your experience.
You should know that Nusa Penida is an island separated from Bali, and to get there from Bali, you need to use a car pickup from the hotel and stop at the harbor to cross to Nusa Penida using a fast boat for about less than an hour. After arriving, you need to head to the snorkeling point and switch to a small boat to reach the snorkeling spots determined in the itinerary, which are Gamat Bay and Manta Bay. After snorkeling, you need to get back in the vehicle for a tour of West Penida, which includes Kelingking and Broken Beach. After the tour in Penida, return to the harbor, take the fast boat back to Bali, and then take a vehicle to your hotel in Jimbaran. So, there will be a lot of transportation used for this snorkeling tour activity.
For safe snorkeling locations, there is already an agreement between the local government, village associations, and the organizers of these snorkeling activities, which are permitted and allowed in Gamat Bay and Manta Bay. The boat routes and other activities have also been determined by the authorities, and it should be noted that the sea waves on Nusa Penida Island are quite significant compared to snorkeling in Tulamben, Blue Lagoon, or Nusa Dua.
The third explanation is that Bali Island often experiences traffic jams due to the large number of tourist visits from various countries. Especially for those who are visiting Bali for the first time and want to visit and stay a few nites on Nusa Penida Island. Of course, this small island will be crowded at every point of its destinations. The limitation on visits to an island or tourist destination is beyond the authority of tour operators.
I hope these three explanations can help and be beneficial for everyone. Our suggestion for beginners who want to dive or snorkel is to go to Nusa Dua, which are close to Jimbaran or Tulamben. And for those who want enjoy the beach, the scorching heat, and cliff beach views, you can visit Nusa Penida, but it is not recommended for children.
