Eco-friendly Diving Nusa Lembongan begins with simple choices made before, during, and after every dive. The reefs support fish, invertebrates, turtles, and local communities, so visitors have an important role in protecting them.
Practice Good Buoyancy
Neutral buoyancy keeps fins, gauges, and cameras away from coral. Maintain awareness of your position and avoid touching the seabed unless your instructor gives a specific safety instruction.
Observe, Do Not Interfere
Never feed, chase, handle, or collect marine life. Animals need their natural behavior and space. Take photographs from a respectful distance and allow other divers to enjoy the site.
Reduce Waste
Bring a reusable bottle, avoid unnecessary single-use plastics, and dispose of waste responsibly. If you see marine debris and can remove it safely without damaging the reef, follow your guide’s advice.
