About this spot
Trawangan Wall sits in the Gili Islands Marine Protected Area, part of the Taman Wisata Perairan system in West Nusa Tenggara. The wall drops into deeper water and attracts a steady population of reef fish and pelagic species. The site benefits from protection status, though coral bleaching warnings are current for the region. The dive works year-round, with water conditions shifting seasonally across the Lombok Strait. Visibility and current vary with monsoon patterns, making planning essential. Access is straightforward from Gili Trawangan's main jetty; local operators can organize transport and briefings. Twelve species have been recorded here, ranging from small reef residents to larger pelagic visitors. The wall structure provides habitat and feeding grounds that draw consistent marine life. Community divers have contributed three video records of the site, offering real-world footage of conditions and encounters. Because coral bleaching warnings are active in the region, expect ongoing restoration and varied coral health. The protected status means stricter guidelines—check local rules before descent. Trawangan Wall suits divers comfortable with variable conditions and seeking to explore an actively monitored marine reserve.
