Dive Candidasa and swim with large schools of fish at Gili Tepekong and Gili Mimpang. The coral landscape is impressive and due to the strong currents at times, you can often find pelagic fish here such as sharks and, in the right season, the sunfish (mola mola). Due to the sometimes challenging conditions, only advanced divers can dive here. Joe’s Gone Diving organises regular day trips to this stunning area.

Gili Mimpang consists of 4 mini rock islands and is located close to the village of Candidasa. The quality of the reef is healthy and it boasts a rich marine life with the occasional shark and turtle. The site is a combination of slopes and walls. Joe’s Gone Diving offers trips to Gili Mimpang for the more experienced diver.
Key Facts:
This small island boasts spectacular swim-throughs, reef slopes and vertical walls. On this site for advanced divers, you can expect to find large schools of barracudas, turtles and in season the occasional mola mola. The current can be challenging at times, so Joe’s Gone Diving only dives there when the current is not too strong.
Key Facts:
Gili Biaha is most famous for its shark cave at about 12 metres depth. The site itself is as the name already suggests a little island (gili in Indonesian). The dive is a wall dive and Joe’s Gone Diving only dives there when the current and surge are not too strong, normally in the mornings. The wall has a few terraces and you can often find octopus, nudibranch, manti shrimps and if you are lucky a leaf scorpionfish.
