Day at leisure
You’ll probably need a rest by now, but there are a number of things to do and see on Lembongan. We recommend strolling along the beach and supporting the Aquatic Alliance who are busy in the field collating data on manta rays in order to learn more about and conserve their very existence. They also offer two presentations a week offering an insight into their work and weird and wonderful manta facts.
