About Bio Rock

Bio Rock is a shallow Gili Trawangan reef-restoration site built around electrified metal structures that encourage coral growth. Divers visit it less for dramatic topography than for the artificial reef framework itself, which draws reef fish, small predators, turtles, and other marine life around a site that is easy to combine with relaxed island diving.
