Scuba

Gili Banta is a remote island west of the main Komodo National Park, often visited by liveaboards. Its exposed location makes for challenging conditions but rewards divers with pristine reefs and a high chance of encounters with manta rays, sharks, and other large pelagics.

Features

A volcanic island outside the main park, known for its wild, current-swept dive sites. Sites like 'GPS Point' are magnets for sharks and large schools of tuna and jacks. The conditions require significant diving experience.
