Gili Selang

A challenging spot for the advanced. Strong currents meet the big boys like Hammerhead and the grey reef shark.

Strong currents and the Indonesian flowthrough – a spot to meet

Diving around Gili Selang is quite a challenge and only for advanced divers. The strong current between Bali and Lombok hits the small island at the north-east flank and creates some action. This site is also called “The Express.” The strong current prevents sea life from taking root, but out in the blue, you have a good chance to see bigger sharks like the grey reef shark and sometimes the famous Hammerhead.
