2 hour excursion was 8 hours
Let me start of by saying a great experience, didn’t see any rays as water very choppy but did see pod of dolphins and other part of Bali. My issue is that it was advertised as a 2 hour excusion leaving from our hotel at 10.30 and I had booked an evening dinner at 5pm. We left at 10.30 and did not get back to our hotel until 6.30pm. Luckily I did not have a flight to catch or anything else planned as I would have been totally stuck. Please make sure of timings before you book.

Poor experience
The advert says 2 hours snorkeling. We went to 3 spots and got 15 mins, then 10 mins then 10 mins. And there were no fish at the last spot. I complained to the boat crew at the first stop asking why we only had 15 mins and he said it was 2 hours on the water travelling but only around 30 mins snorkeling. It was such a waste of time and money to travel from seminyak for 35 min snorkeling. Would definitely not recommend.

We Were Promised 3 Stops & Only Did 2
The organization of the trip was great. A driver picked us up on time & took us to the ferry. We were met at the Nusa Penida ferry terminal promptly upon arrival & escorted to the snorkeling shop. We were fitted with gear and boarded their modern and well maintained boat. This is where things didn’t meet expectation. We signed up for this excursion as it was advertised as a manta ray snorkel trip. This was to include 3 stops. 1 with the possibility of seeing a manta ray and 2 reef fish snorkel spots. When we arrived at the manta ray snorkel spot, the guide said we may not see any, it’s not the right time of year and do people want to stop here or go to the next sight. I took this to mean we may not see a manta, but there’s a slim chance we might, so why not try it? If we don’t see one, at least we’d get to swim/snorkel in a bit deeper water & enjoy the beautiful ocean. However, I was out voted as most people voted not to stop here. The trip advertised 3 stops, so right away, we were now only doing 2. The second stop was okay but not great. The reef looked unhealthy & not a lot of fish, but not the operator’s fault. The 3rd stop was very shallow with a brown, broken up reef. Snorkelers were allowed to walk & stand on the coral & it was very messy. Back to the shop where towels & showers were provided. Operation was good, but eliminating 1 of the snorkel spots and the poor reef conditions made this an overall disappointment.

Was not great
Cost was $170 for shared boat and $280 for private. I took the shared boat and there was 22 people! Would a private boat for 50% more coast just be by myself? So after a taxi, fast ferry, boat ride we only made 3 stops and the first was to see mantas but they left so quick they had us get back in the boat. I have taken a snorkeling trip at Nusa Penida and it was actually the best trip I’ve done anywhere so that goes to show how bad this trip was. I feel bad for the others with us because they don’t know how awesome thing place is or used to be?

Why this scores 50
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Snorkeling In Nusa Penida Island With Manta Ray From Bali: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Jimbaran.
How much does Snorkeling In Nusa Penida Island With Manta Ray From Bali cost?
+
Prices start at $100 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Jimbaran usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Snorkeling In Nusa Penida Island With Manta Ray From Bali take?
+
Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Jimbaran is not rushed.
Is Snorkeling In Nusa Penida Island With Manta Ray From Bali worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 50 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.3/5 across 55 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Jimbaran, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Snorkeling In Nusa Penida Island With Manta Ray From Bali?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Snorkeling In Nusa Penida Island With Manta Ray From Bali suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Snorkeling In Nusa Penida Island With Manta Ray From Bali?
+
Around 19 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Jimbaran can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Jimbaran and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Snorkeling In Nusa Penida Island With Manta Ray From Bali start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Jimbaran within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Jimbaran?
+
On Outty we rank every Jimbaran experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Discover The Best of Ubud: All-Inclusive and Private Guided Tour, Ubud: Monkey Forest, Jungle Swing, Rice Terrace and Water Temple, Best of Ubud Private and All-Inclusive 1-Day Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Jimbaran?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Jimbaran?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
